Title: Parse redis-uri at CLI, and allow for redis AUTH

- Allow for authentication to a Redis server that is protected by a
password.
- Adds `-redis-uri=` CLI argument for specifying the redis connection
information in standard URI notation. This is the default assumed
by many
12-factor apps. The implementation here will also use Redis
defaults for
any fields not specified by the user (port, db number).
- If no redis information is specified, use default case (e.g.
`redis://localhost:6379/0`)
- Check for connection error when first creating Redis connection
pool at
startup -- if found, inform user and die gracefully.
