[benchmarks] Fix redis benchmark.

Intermittenly, the connection between the client redis_benchmark container can be
flaky with the server, even if the server has been up for a long time. If this
happens, just re-run a client until we get a result.

Also, don't start a new server for each operation.

Also also, modify Makefile run-benchmark call to accept RUNTIME=runc correctly.
