This commit adds configuration fields to enable gossip encryption of memberlist. Without encryption, a malicious actor is able to add and remove members from the pool and cause general disruption to the service. Enabling encryption also acts as a pseudo-checksum and helps to ensure that no malformed UDP packets are accepted as valid messages.
