Docker-gitlab: redis auth support

[laoshancun]

hi.
how to pass redis password to gitlab?

It doesn't currently seem to be possible.

The config file https://github.com/sameersbn/docker-gitlab/blob/master/assets/runtime/config/gitlabhq/resque.yml#L17

The redis checks https://github.com/sameersbn/docker-gitlab/blob/master/assets/runtime/functions#L248

Originally I thought you could hack REDIS_HOST to embed the user:pass but because of the checks that won't work.

It would be a nice feature for Redis nodes that are not running on the machine to support REDIS_URI configuration option and create the uri and connect via the -u option but that was only added in 3.2.1 and the redis-cli version bundled with this version is 2.8.4

there is also a pretty old PR for this https://github.com/sameersbn/docker-gitlab/pull/1026

[laoshancun]
