GMS: when coordinator leaves, the new view's creator should be the next member in line, not the current coord
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JGRP-915
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JGRP-915
             Project: JGroups
          Issue Type: Feature Request
            Reporter: Bela Ban
            Assignee: Bela Ban
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.8


If we have {A,B,C} and A is the coordinator, assume the view is {A|10}.

When A leaves (gracefully), then the new view is {A|11}, but the coord is B. (Note that when A crashes the new view is {B|11}).

This is correct, but since A left, we'll have no UUID/logical name caching, so the ViewID will not use the logical name to print, but the UUID, which is not nice.

So we'll change the semantics as follows: in the example above, the new view will be {B|11} both on crash failover (current behavior) *and* on graceful leave of A (new behavior).
