Provide Converter for Kafka Connect.

Supply an out the box converter to support Kafka Connect

@satishd I'm thinking of bumping this to 0.3.2 as independent and i think getting 0.3.1 out the door with the critical blocking bits for migration is more important, and worst case is if a user needs this, they could run with confluent converter and simply use the introduced confluent compatible protocol and rest endpoints for an interim. WDYT?

@michaelandrepearce Sure, not really needed for 0.3.1.

Hi Satish,Michael,

Is this covering bytearrayconvertor?

Hi @gavintgh ,

This is to be an Converter for Kafka Connect, similar in nature to https://github.com/confluentinc/schema-registry/tree/master/avro-converter/src/main/java/io/confluent/connect/avro

When doing some of the confluent compatibility bits i have some of this done already locally but haven't had the time due to other project pressures to complete it off.

Is this what you're asking for? Is there a specific need for this now?

Just so i prioritise what open source work i work on over the next month. For me and my org this is low priority so i had semi dropped it for now.

Any updates on this?
