Using the new Serf MergeDelegate support, Consul can prevent a join that would cause cluster merges to take place. On the LAN ring we ensure all the other nodes match our datacenter, and on the WAN ring all other nodes must be a server. This should solve most of the accidental join issues. It does not solve the problem of a client joining the WAN ring IF there is only a single datacenter, but does fix most other conditions. Fixes #260
