Review Comment:
   I think this is a fair point... people may be using 
`ProducerConfig`/`ConsumerConfig` instances on their own without using a 
`KafkaProducer`/`KafkaConsumer` to construct them. In that case, if they 
haven't specified a value (or have explicitly specified `null`) for the 
key/value serializer/deserializer class, then upgrading to a version of Kafka 
that contains this change will cause things to break.
