Inconsistent Channel#getState return semantics between byte and streaming state transfer
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JGRP-686
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-686
             Project: JGroups
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.6.1, 2.6, 2.5.2, 2.5.1, 2.5
            Reporter: Vladimir Blagojevic
         Assigned To: Vladimir Blagojevic
             Fix For: 2.6.2, 2.7


We have inconsistency between byte and streaming based state transfer when it comes to semantics of returning from Channel#getState call. In streaming state transfer calling thread returns from Channel#getState when application installs a state (or fails) and for byte transfer calling thread returns from Channel#getState as soon as state arrives to channel and *prior* to state installation in client application. We should make Channel#getState calling thread return *after* state installation for byte based state transfer as well.
