Connection Manager infrastructure supporting the Clustering Active-Active requirement.
This commit brings in the following changes :
1. Connection Manager as a functional module that runs above SAL providing common services to various south-bound plugins.
The initial version of Connection Manager takes in Node as the only argument and let the Connection Management Scheme to determine the fate of the connection.
Primary use-case that is addressed here is the HA/Clustering's Active-Active mode with the ability for Nodes to connect to different controller in a cluster.
2. SAL Connection service is implemented as a seperate bundle in order to show case the possibility of SAL being extensible and not a monolith piece of infra.
3. The only API that is exposed now is the isLocal functionality which can be used by Apps and Protocol plugins alike to take care of their individual funcationalities.
The corresponding Protocol-plugin changes will be pushed as a different commit.
