Description
While dealing with an autopilot escalation, I noticed that the logging when autopilot starts up is suboptimal, for a few reasons.
reconcile_interval 0s
is printed to the logs, which is incorrect, and actually alarming. What's happening is it's printing out the value of the reconcile interval as it exists on the raft backend, which is 0 by default, but that's not actually the value autopilot is using. This is misleading.This makes the autopilot config struct print in a better way and also updates the logging to not actually print the values for reconcile interval or update interval unless they were actually changed from their defaults.
