[@keyv/redis] Migrate to node-redis from ioredis

[jftanner]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This was mentioned as part of #868, but not implemented as part of it. So this isn't new, but doesn't currently have an issue to track it.

With the effective deprecation of ioredis, devs are encouraged to switch to the official node-redis module instead. But, currently, that's not compatible with Keyv without a shim.

Describe the solution you'd like
One of two options:

1. A new @keyv/node-redis module
2. Migrate @keyv/redis to use node-redis instead.

In the latter case, it would either be a breaking change or would require a shim to still accept an ioredis instance passed to the constructor (new KeyvRedis(redis);).

@jftanner - we will be migrating to that soon and do plan to make it a breaking change moving forward.

We are also considering using https://github.com/valkey-io/iovalkey to replace ioredis.

Cool thanks for telling me about it. I already switched to another npm package but I'll be happy to switch back when it's ready.

Something to consider when looking at this. https://github.com/jaredwray/keyv/tree/ioredis-port-to-iovalkey

What library did you move too?

@jftanner @100tomer - Wanted to update you on the plan that we are doing for Redis moving forward. Since ioredis is no longer being supported we are going to split things into two storage adapters:

• @keyv/valkey - this is the open source redis server that is being supported by the linux foundation. We are in progress and will release it in the next couple weeks as it is based on the ioredis library now known as iovalkey. You can read more about Valkey by clicking on the link.
• @keyv/redis - we will be porting this over to node-redis and fixing some things such as namespace issues in October and November but will do a major version release with this change.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@keyv/valkey has been released 🎉

@mcollina thanks for the work on porting this over!

Just FYI as we are working on the new version and should have it out in the next 2-3 weeks.
