[redis-py 8.0] Connections now negotiate RESP3 via HELLO by default — fails against servers/proxies without HELLO (Redis < 6.0, some proxies/compatible servers); force protocol=2

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Default wire protocol changed to RESP3 in 8.0; HELLO exists only since Redis 6.0.0. Fix status: documented_behavior Limitations: - Source/doc-derived; exact server error text varies by server version (no HELLO-specific fallback in client code). Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/redis/redis-py/ba6976bc2b8d5daed034be982c30194770ed1c15/README.md (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): Starting with redis-py 8.0, clients use RESP3 on the wire by default; set protocol=2 to force RESP2. - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/redis/redis-py/ba6976bc2b8d5daed034be982c30194770ed1c15/redis/connection.py (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): on_connect sends HELLO <protocol> (with AUTH when credentials) when protocol is 3 and raises ConnectionError('Invalid RESP version') if handshake proto mismatches; DEFAULT_RESP_VERSION = 3 (redis/utils.py). - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/redis/redis/ebd3a0e1fa626db1dd7c28e7b401ff64bbb8c65e/src/commands/hello.json (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): HELLO command 'since': '6.0.0'.
