Summary of Changes
Added support for Redis session handling.
Testing Instructions
Modify the configuration.php file and include the following lines:
public $session_redis_server_host = 'redis-server-url';
public $session_redis_server_port = '6379';
Expected result
Sessions are stored in Redis and slight performance improvement when used in conjunction with Redis Cache.
Actual result
Session management is done by Redis and will work in a clustered environment without using database session handler.
Documentation Changes Required
Modify configuration.php
public $session_redis_server_host = 'redis-server-url';
public $session_redis_server_port = '6379';

If you're a Mac user running Homebrew for PHP, this is actually pretty easy to test.
brew install redis
brew install phpxx-redis (replace xx with the PHP version you're using)
brew services start redisThen get into global config, change the session handler (default settings are fine), save, and validate that things work using Redis as a session backend.
I'm comfortable merging based on my test, but it'd be nice if someone else could also do so.

but we still need to manage situation like mod_status that directly access to the #__session table https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/administrator/modules/mod_status/mod_status.php#L33

It's fine for now because of the app code that arbitrarily writes stuff to the session table even if the database session handler isn't in use.
