Flush the Lua scripts cache.

By default, SCRIPT FLUSH will synchronously flush the cache. Starting with Redis 6.2, setting the lazyfree-lazy-user-flush configuration directive to "yes" changes the default flush mode to asynchronous.

It is possible to use one of the following modifiers to dictate the flushing mode explicitly:

• ASYNC: flushes the cache asynchronously
• SYNC: flushes the cache synchronously

For more information about EVAL scripts please refer to Introduction to Eval Scripts.
