Avro (serdes) support for Producer mode

[whatsupbros]

kafkacat is a great tool, and allows you to consume messages from a topic in Avro using serdes:

./kafkacat -b localhost:9092 \
-s value=avro \
-r http://localhost:8081 \
-t my-topic \
-o beginning \
-K : \
-C

But support of Avro (or serdes) for the Producer mode is also needed:

./kafkacat -b localhost:9092 \
-s value=avro \
-r http://localhost:8081 \
-t my-topic \
-K : \
-P

% ERROR: -s serdes only available in the consumer
