Fix audit-log encoding issue (CC-7337)

[absolutelightning]

Description

Fixes bug - CC-7337, where we can see zip encoded characters in audit log files.

The audit-logs needs to be human-readable hence the changes in this PR is making sure that the audit log for any API call is only JSON encoded(not zip encoded). This is done by enforcing the request header Accept-Encoding: application/json only for audit logs. By doing so the zip handler will ignore encoding the response to zip.

Also found another bug, if we enforce the JSON in audit response, the audit-log handler is ignoring the 429 status-code hence converting it to 200.

Encoded log sample.

Testing & Reproduction steps

Manual steps on local -

• In ENT repo - Replace line with

		health.Servers = append(health.Servers, srvHealth)
		health.Servers = append(health.Servers, srvHealth)
		health.Servers = append(health.Servers, srvHealth)
		health.Servers = append(health.Servers, srvHealth)

• Run the ENT binary with licence and enable audit log using config -

audit = {
	enabled =  true
	sink = {
	 file-sink = {
	    name = "file-sink"
	    type = "file"
	    format = "json"
	    path = "/tmp/audit.json"
	    delivery_guarantee = "best-effort"
	    mode = "640"
	    rotate_bytes = 67108864
	    rotate_duration = "1h",
	    rotate_max_files = 176
	 }
	}
}
acl = {
  enabled = true
  default_policy = "deny"
  enable_token_persistence = true
} 

• Run consul acl bootstrap
• Take the token and replace it in the following code snippet for the value of X-Consul-Token -

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"
)

func makeReq() {
	req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", "http://localhost:8500/v1/operator/autopilot/health", nil)
	req.Header.Add("X-Consul-Token", "token")
	client := &http.Client{}
	res, _ := client.Do(req)
	fmt.Println(res)
}

func main() {
	makeReq()
}

• Postman could also be used instead of above code
• Check the audit logs file generated. It will be generated like below -
