[keycloak-dev] Clustering and user sessions

[Bill Burke]

Only works for session refreshes.  Also leaves an open window that the 
user is still logged in after they log out.

Obviously that's only for user sessions and not for admin updates, where we should still send invalidation messages for each update.

This should mean that instead of sending a message every time a single session is updated, we send a single message per node every 60 seconds or so (should be configurable). When receiving a message from the cluster the node would go through the list and update the user sessions where the received LastSessionRefresh is higher than the one it has itself. Nodes still use the mem user sessions store, but with the cache on top.
