🔥 Breaking changes

• Changing the default value for ssl_check_hostname to True, to ensure security validations are not skipped by default (#3626) Important: When connecting to a Redis master via Sentinel, you may need to set ssl_check_hostname=False if the Sentinel service is not configured to return hostnames. Refer to [issue #3629](https://github.com/redis/redis-py/releases/edit/v6.0.0#3629) for more details.
• Updated default value of 'require_full_coverage' argument to true for sync Cluster client to match sync/async cluster APIs (#3434)
• Adding default retry configuration changes for cluster clients (#3622) Important: When instantiating a cluster client retry object becomes mandatory.
  • If retry object is not provided a default one is created with ExponentialWithJitterBackoff strategy and number of retries synced with 'cluster_error_retry_attempts'
  • In case a retry object is provided, its number of retries will be used for cluster operations number of retries and 'cluster_error_retry_attempts' will be ignored
