Description:
loadBalanceStrategy and roundRobinLoadBalance are exclusive, but used for similar purpose. Having two such similar option may lead ambiguity for users.

How to repeat:
n/a

Suggested fix:
Remove roundRobinLoadBalance option and add loadBalanceStrategy=roundrobin.

Added the following note to the Connector/J 9.5.0 release notes:

  SequentialBalanceStrategy is now available as a load-balancing strategy 
  that can be selected by setting the connection property ha.loadBalanceStrategy=sequential.
