Description

The Tomcat session state module uses a custom function for creating the session region on the server (CreateRegionFunction).  After reviewing that code, it appears that this could be replaced with the region creation function/logic used by gfsh (RegionCreateFunction).  The RegionCreateFunction is better tested and reusing it means less duplication.

The Redis adapter already does something similar; it uses the CreateRegionCommand gfsh object which in turn calls the RegionCreateFunction.  That code may serve as a reference.
