Robert Nishihara 89d4a6df93 Start Redis in protected mode when started via ray.init(). (#2697)
This PR makes it so that when Ray is started via ray.init() (as opposed to via ray start) the Redis servers will be started in "protected mode" (which means that clients can only connect by connecting to localhost).

In practice, we actually connect redis clients by passing in the node IP address (not localhost), so I need to create a redis config file on the fly to allow both localhost and the node's actual IP address (it would have been nice to find a way to do this from the Python redis client, but I couldn't find one).
