> Currently KTable aggregation takes a selector used for selecting the 
> aggregate key.and an aggregator for aggregating the values with the same 
> selected key, which makes the function a little bit "heavy":
> {code}
> table.groupBy(initializer, adder, substractor, selector, /* optional serde*/);
> {code}
>  It is better to extract the selector in a separate groupBy function such that
> {code}
> KTableGrouped KTable#groupBy(selector);
> KTable KTableGrouped#aggregate(initializer, adder, substractor, /* optional 
> serde*/);
> {code}
> Note that "KTableGrouped" only have APIs for aggregate and reduce, and none 
> else. So users have to follow the pattern below:
> {code}
> table.groupBy(...).aggregate(...);
> {code}
> This pattern is more natural for users who are familiar with SQL / Pig or 
> Spark DSL, etc.
