* agent: Parse values given to `?passing` for health endpoints. Previously Consul only checked for the existence of the querystring, not the value. That means using `?passing=false` would actually still include passing values. Consul now parses the value given to passing as a boolean. If no value is provided, the old behavior remains. This may be a breaking change for some users, but the old experience was incorrect and caused enough confusion to warrant changing it. [GH-2212, GH-3136]
* agent: The default value of [`-disable-host-node-id`](https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/options.html#_disable_host_node_id) has been changed from false to true. This means you need to opt-in to host-based node IDs and by default Consul will generate a random node ID. A high number of users struggled to deploy newer versions of Consul with host-based IDs because of various edge cases of how the host IDs work in Docker, on specially-provisioned machines, etc. so changing this from opt-out to opt-in will ease operations for many Consul users. [GH-3171]
