Existing Kafka Topic Migration Tool

[harshach]

Most often users ends up writing json or some other format into a topic. If they want to migrate this data into Avro encoded format supported by registry they end up writing their own consumer/producer tool to do this. This issue aims to provide a tooling to make this easier for users.

@harshach KafkaAvroSerDesApp supports json to avro by taking records from a data file. Do we want to enhance that to take records from existing topics and push those into target topic with the required transformation from json(or any other format) to avro?

KSQL can be used to do this fairly simply
