Title: implement repl_auto_resync against 2.6

This allows you to configure slaves so they WILL NOT auto-reconnect to their master if the connection is lost. This is very useful if you're running many masters on one host and many slaves on a second host. What you want to do is resync them one at a time, but redis has no facility for this. But using this feature you can easily script a solution in Perl/Python/Ruby/whatever.

We've used this in production at Craigslist for a while now.
