Description

As the title suggests, we check for the presence of Redis and use it if available:

// pseudocode
if(redisAvailable) {
  var db = require('redis');
} else {
  var db = require('level');
}

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the existing codebase for any configuration or environment variable that indicates Redis availability, then implement a conditional require based on that. Write a test to verify the fallback behavior.
