Change the `.tgz` file extension in the snapshot save and restore
examples on /api-docs/snapshot to `.snap`.
This is consistent with the file extension used in other example
snapshot save and restore commands, as well as the default extension
used by the Consul Snapshot Agent.
Path parameters, query parameters, and request body parameters are now shown in
separate sections rather than combined into one general parameters section.
This makes it much easier to understand quickly where a parameter should be
provided.
All Consul HTTP API endpoints now URL-decode resource names specified in the
path, enabling resource names containing URL-invalid characters to be used
in HTTP API requests if URL-encoded into the path.
Functionality implemented in Github Pull Requests:
- #11335
- #11957
- #12103
- #12190
- #12297
Also documents CLI accepting URL-invalid resource names.
All Consul HTTP API endpoints now URL-decode resource names specified in the
path, enabling resource names containing URL-invalid characters to be used
in HTTP API requests if URL-encoded into the path. The Consul HTTP API always
supported URL-decoding of query parameters.
The CLI automatically URL-encodes arguments which are inserted as resource
names in the URL path, enabling the CLI to also interact with resource names
that contain URL-invalid characters.
Changes include:
- Add diagrams of the operation of different consistency modes
- Note that only stale reads benefit from horizontal scaling
- Increase scannability with headings
- Document consistency mode defaults and how to override for
DNS and HTTP API interfaces
- Document X-Consul-Effective-Consistency response header
/docs/security/acl/acl-system was renamed in e9a42df from PR #12460 to
/docs/security/acl. A corresponding redirect was not added for this
page, resulting in a 404 being returned when accessing the old URL
path.
This commit redirects the former URL path to the new location, and
also updates all links on the site to point to the new location.
Use long form of CLI flags in all example commands.

This section was actually about authentication (not authorization).
We already have sections in our api and cli docs. This commit removes the section and replaces
it with a short paragraph in the Tokens section which links to the existing docs.
