When the server's `vault` block has a default identity, we don't check the
user's Vault token (and in fact, we warn them on job submit if they've provided
one). But the validation hook still checks for a token if
`allow_unauthenticated` is set to true. This is a misconfiguration but there's
no reason for Nomad not to do the expected thing here.

The keys of `meta` fields have all characters outside of `[A-Za-z0-9_.]`
replaced by underscores when we create `NOMAD_META` environment variables. Make
sure this replacement is documented.

Lower cased the title and headings in line with our company-wide style since this is being linked in an upcoming blog I was editing. I also lowercased words such as "Auth Method" and other primitives/components when mentioned in prose - this is in line with our style guide as well where we don't capitalize auth method and we only capitalize components that are SKU/product-like in their separateness/importance.

Adam Trujilo should be in agreement with changes like this based on our past discussions, but feel free to bring in stake holders if you're not sure about accepting and we can discuss.
The `operator snapshot` commands and agent don't back up Nomad's key
material. Add some warnings about this to places where users might be looking
for information on cluster recovery.

The `-dev-consul` and `-dev-vault` flags add default identities and
configuration to the Nomad agent to connect and use the workload
identity integration with Consul and Vault.
This commit introduces the parameter preventRescheduleOnLost which indicates that the task group can't afford to have multiple instances running at the same time. In the case of a node going down, its allocations will be registered as unknown but no replacements will be rescheduled. If the lost node comes back up, the allocs will reconnect and continue to run.
In case of max_client_disconnect also being enabled, if there is a reschedule policy, an error will be returned.
Implements issue #10366

Some of our documentation on `tls` configuration could be more clear as to
whether we're referring to mTLS or TLS. Also, when ACLs are enabled it's fine to
have `verify_https_client=false` (the default). Make it clear that this is an
acceptably secure configuration and that it's in fact recommended in order to
avoid pain of distributing client certs to user browsers.
Fixes some errors in the documentation for the Consul integration, based on
tests locally without using the `nomad setup consul` command and updating the
docs to match.
* Consul CE doesn't support the `-namespace-rule-bind-namespace` option.
* The binding rule for services should not including the Nomad namespace in the
`bind-name` parameter (the service is registered in the appropriate Consul
namespace).
* The role for tasks should include the suffix "-tasks" in the name to match the
binding rule we create.
* Fix the Consul bound audiences to be a list of strings
* Fix some quoting issues in the commands.
Some sections of the `consul` configuration are relevant only for clients or
servers. We updated our Vault docs to split these parameters out into their own
sections for clarity. Match that for the Consul docs.
* API command and jobspec docs
* PR comments addressed
* API docs for job/jobid/action socket
* Removing a perhaps incorrect origin of job_id across the jobs api doc
* PR comments addressed
The `-reschedule` flag stops allocations and assumes the Nomad scheduler
will create new allocations to replace them. But this is only true for
service and batch jobs.
Restarting non-service jobs with the `-reschedule` flag causes the
command to loop forever waiting for the allocations to be replaced,
which never happens.
Allocations for system jobs may be replaced by triggering an evaluation
after each stop to cause the reconciler to run again.
Sysbatch jobs should not be allowed to be rescheduled as they are never
replaced by the scheduler.
This simplifies the default setup of Nomad workloads WI-based
authentication for Consul by using a single auth method with 2 binding rules.
Users can still specify separate auth methods for services and tasks.
Nomad load all plugins from `plugin_dir` regardless if it is listed in
the agent configuration file. This can cause unexpected binaries to be
executed.
This commit begins the deprecation process of this behaviour. The Nomad
agent will emit a warning log for every plugin binary found without a
corresponding agent configuration block.
