Redis-rb 5.0+ compatibility

[nevans]

Currently, rollout depends on redis ~> 4.0, but redis 5.0 was released on August 29th.

The last several versions of the redis gem added many deprecation warnings for the various API changes, as well as the ability to raise errors instead of log warnings. So, if there's good test coverage, it might be fairly straightforward to make any necessary changes for the upgrade.

sorry for the quick report without even an attempt at a PR. If no one else sends in a PR for this in the next couple of weeks, I'll probably make time for it myself. :)

If its helpful, here are the changes we had to make to flipper to support redis 5. I assume they'd be similar for rollout. Might save some time.

• relax constraint: https://github.com/jnunemaker/flipper/pull/671/files
• check if sadd returns boolean https://github.com/jnunemaker/flipper/pull/660/files
• use @client.class instead of ::Redis directly https://github.com/jnunemaker/flipper/pull/677/files

There is any plan to support redis-rb 5 in a short time? I was thinking on doing a PR for this but I can see two PRs #167 and #168 but not even reviewed. Is this project receiving maintenance?

Same here. Am debating whether I need to start looking at alternatives.

@reneklacan can you take a look at this?

I've just created this project https://github.com/jcagarcia/rollout-redis for continue with the rollout gem support. It supports working with Redis 5 and new several functionalities :) feedback is totally welcome!

Bump, can you support redis 5.0 please?
