@MohanDV this is a good start and will be a nice feature to have. I have a
couple suggestions.
First, can we move this to it's own function/endpoint? I think this would
be useful for assigning permissions to existing topics as well.
Second, I think we need some kind of check that Kerberos is enabled before
we try to permission a topic for a user. This would be similar to what's done
in the
[KafkaConfig](https://github.com/apache/metron/blob/master/metron-interface/metron-rest/src/main/java/org/apache/metron/rest/config/KafkaConfig.java)
class on line 111.
