Instance failover will be performed without data loss control.
LimitedDataLoss
Instance failover will be protected with data loss control. More
specifically, the failover will only be performed if the current
replication offset diff between primary and replica is under a certain
threshold.
Unspecified
Defaults to LIMITED_DATA_LOSS if a data protection mode is not
specified.
