Summary: vitess allows users to create keyspaces that can deny access to already existing keyspaces

Details: ### Impact Users can either intentionally or inadvertently create a keyspace containing `/` characters such that from that point on, anyone who tries to view keyspaces from VTAdmin will receive an error. Trying to list all the keyspaces using `vtctldclient GetKeyspaces` will also return an error. Note that all other keyspaces can still be administered using the CLI (vtctldclient). ### Patches v16.0.1 (corresponding to 0.16.1 on pkg.go.dev) ### Workarounds Delete the offending keyspace using a CLI client (vtctldclient) ``` vtctldclient --server ... DeleteKeyspace a/b ``` Found during a security audit sponsored by the [CNCF](https://cncf.io) and facilitated by [OSTIF](https://ostif.org).
