KAFKA-5072[WIP]: Kafka topics should allow custom metadata configs within
some config namespace
@benstopford @ijuma @granthenke @junrao
This change allows one to define any topic property within the namespace
"metadata.*" - for e.g. metadata.description, metadata.project,
metadata.contact.info, etc (More details on the JIRA)
Raising a PR with [WIP] tag since I am not sure how to add this to the
documentation given that the list of topic properties is auto-generated for the
documentation.
This contribution is my original work and I license the work to the Kafka
@project under the project's open source license

> Kafka topics should allow custom metadata configs
> Such config properties may have some fixed namespace e.g. metadata* or custom*
> This is handy for governance. For example, in large organizations sharing a
> kafka cluster - it might be helpful to be able to configure properties like
> metadata.contact.info, metadata.project, metadata.description on a topic.
