This changeset refactors the scan operation slightly, using a List
with a predefined size (since we know it), as well as using the
document ID directly for the response rather than doing full blown
JSON decoding which is not needed.

This changeset picks better default settings for the environment
to make it less error-prone in cloud setups and in turn leads to
easier usability.

The changes made are:

  - queryEndpoints set from 5 to 1 by default since this is technically
    a leftover from earlier implementations. We now have a Bucket per
    Thread and since YCSB is sync anyways we only ever need one. Leaving
    it as an option since if we get async ops in the future we can utilize
    those.

  - socketConnectTimeout from 1s to 10s, especially in cloud environments
    socket timeouts are annoying and its better if we have higher defaults.

  - connectTimeout changed from 5s to 30s since the socket connect timeout
    is higher we also need to adjust this one.

  - kvTimeout changed from 2.5s to 10s so that under throughput saturation
    testing you don't get flooded with timeouts potentially. Note that it
    also makes for nicer output if you get "higher latencies" as part of
    the regular output and not in the error section.

This changeset adds 2 config params which can be tweaked to enable
and print both the network latency and runtime metrics to the
configured logger.

Update cassandra2-cql driver to only run tests on jdk8

[cassandra] properly clear cached containers.

clear containers before we use them rather than after, so that in the case of
exceptions we can recover.
