KAFKA-3279: Remove checks for JAAS system property
JAAS configuration may be set using other methods and hence the check for
System property doesn't always match where the actual configuration used by
Kafka is loaded from.

KAFKA-3279: Remove checks for system property

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: security
> Reporter: Rajini Sivaram
> Assignee: Rajini Sivaram
>
> In many environments (eg. JEE containers), JAAS configuration may be set
> using methods different from the System property
> {{java.security.auth.login.config}}. While Kafka obtains JAAS configuration
> correctly using {{Configuration.getConfiguration()}}, an exception is thrown
> if the System property {{java.security.auth.login.config}} is not set even
> when the property is never used. There are also misleading error messages
> which refer to the value of this property which may or may not be the
> configuration for which the error is being reported.
