MINOR: Error when incompatible console producer configs. Spinned off from [KAFKA-2526](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2526), to throw an exception if the console producer is passed a key serializer or a value serializer. To quote a comment on the JIRA: > The longer term solution with a KIP is obviously a lot more involved, but you should feel free to work on it; it would be a useful improvement. Since there would be two separate steps, you'd probably want to either file a separate JIRA for the better error messages and leave this one to the KIP or just file that fix as a MINOR PR.
