METRON-1592 Unable to use third party parser with Storm versions >= 1.1.0
When launching a third party parser using
`$METRON_HOME/bin/start_parser_topology.sh` in HDP 2.6, Storm 1.1.0 the
following exception is thrown.
```
ClassNotFoundException:
org.apache.metron.parsers.topology.MergeAndShadeTransformer
```
## Changes
* Updated `$METRON_HOME/bin/start_parser_topology.sh` to detect the Storm
version.
* When using third party parsers and running a Storm version <1.1.0, the
`MergeAndShadeTransformer` is used as it has been.
* When using third party parsers with Storm versions >=1.1.0, the new
`--jars` argument is used.
* Updated the third party parsers README as the 'upload to zookeeper' step
was out-of-order. Also, corrected some minor formatting issues in the README.
## Testing
* Launch a development environment.
* Ensure that the Alerts UI is being populated with alerts. This confirms
that the the default parsers; like Bro and Snort that do not use 3rd party libs
can be launched successfully.
* Follow the example instructions in
`metron-platform/metron-parsers/3rdPartyParser.md` to deploy a parser that uses
a 3rd party library. If the parser can be launched and parse messages, then
this change is a success.
* The development environments are based on HDP 2.6 with Storm 1.1.0. If
you want a gold star, spin this up in an environment based on HDP 2.5 and
ensure that 3rd party parser can be launched.
