Improve resiliency of retrying commits on state transfer 
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ISPN-1581
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1581
             Project: Infinispan
          Issue Type: Enhancement
    Affects Versions: 5.1.0.CR1
            Reporter: Erik Salter
            Assignee: Manik Surtani


The current implementation of ISPN-1484 will retry up to 3 times to retry a commit on a remote node.  This is resilient to 3 state transfers happening in rapid succession.  However, if the cluster loses > 3 nodes, there can still be stale locks.

This is evident in testing this with the TopologyAwareConsistentHash.  I lost a "site" consisting of 4 nodes, and I was able to get stale locks.
