Re-introduce cross-DC failover in driver 4

Description

The drivers team has decided years ago to deprecate, then remove cross-DC failover in all drivers.

The deprecation was done in 3.7 by and the removal was done in driver 4.0.

It turns out that even if cross-DC failover is generally a misfeature, many users were using it in 3.x and cannot upgrade to 4.x if this feature is not available.

We should re-introduce cross-DC failover in driver 4.x – and possibly un-deprecate it in 3.x by reverting JAVA-2041.
