Add support for RANDOMKEY Command

[JyotinderSingh]

We need to implement the RANDOMKEY command similar to the RANDOMKEY command in Redis. Please refer to the following commit in Redis to understand the implementation specifics - source.

1. Write unit and integration tests for the command referring to the tests written in the Redis codebase 7.2.5.
2. For integration tests, you can refer to the tests folder. Note: they have used TCL for the test suite, and we need to port that to our way of writing integration tests using the relevant helper methods. Please refer to our tests directory.
3. For the command, benchmark the code and measure the time taken and memory allocs using benchmem and try to keep them to the bare minimum.

Please assign this to me, i will understand code base first. Good for initial understanding of code flow, I have un-assign myself from other issue.

@codeimmortal if you are not working on this, can I pick this one?

@JyotinderSingh / @soumya-codes - Can you please assign this issue? Would like to try the SCAN approach to get the next valid key for this issue.

@JyotinderSingh @soumya-codes Could you please assign this to me?

@JyotinderSingh @soumya-codes Could you please assign this to me?

Assigned, thanks for picking this up. However, please keep in mind that implementing RANDOMKEY in our setup has proven to be a little challenging up until now, particularly due to the data structures we are using internally. Feel free to discuss any blockers on the Discord channel.

Just wanted to give an update, I am still working on it and hope to raise a PR tomorrow

Hey @Vidyap23, just stumbled upon this, and read the RANDOMKEY implementation of Redis.
Are you working on this? If yes, how are you making sure that this command runs in O(1) with current DB methods (store/store.store() methods) we currently have in DiceDB?

[xanish]

Hey, if this is open I would like to work on it. I was tinkering around and kindof have a working prototype. But will need to discuss some trade-offs before initiating the PR

Hey @JyotinderSingh , would like to figure out how we can do it in O(1) or similar. Please assign to me.

Hey @arpitbbhayani I have initiated the MR, just waiting for confirmation if it can be merged or needs any further changes.

Hey @JyotinderSingh , may I work on this issue since it has been inactive for quite a while?
