[CONTROLLER-283] Cluster has memory issues with jgroups 3.3.1, need to upgrade infinispan to 6.0.2 Final which uses jgroup 3.4.1

While testing the ODL commands from OSGI console in clustered environment, its found that the data replication is not consistent and the commands are failing most of the times, with an error "Address Not Found", reason being routing table cache is not replicated in the remote node when the command is failed.

While debugging the ClusterManager.java file which uses Infinispan 5.3.0 its observed that infinispan 5.3.0 uses jgroups 3.3.1 version which has issues with memory leaks. In the below form related to similar issue with jgroups in infinispan cluster, searched through some of the jboss forums and found that some of forums suggested to go and upgrade the infinispan to get the latest stable version of jgroups that will fix the issue.

Forum : https://community.jboss.org/thread/229121
jgroups 3.3.1 issues: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP/fixforversion/12321978

With the above information its better to upgraded the infinispan from 5.3.0 to 6.0.2 which uses jgroups 3.4.1 Final that didn't have major issues with the cluster.
