Title: JGRP-1485: Don't allow JOIN attempts to timeout indefinitely

Added a configuration option so that if JOIN attempts keep timing out the member that is getting nowhere can instead form a singleton. I've made the default be to retain the old behaviour, to try and mitigate any worries you might have about this...

This seems to be working out fine in my testing, though I've found a follow-up issue that I'll describe in the JIRA.
