Andy Smith 5a842ae155 Switch driver to confluent-kafka client library
This patch switches the kafka python client from kafka-python to
confluent-kafka due to documented threading issues with the
kafka-python consumer and the recommendation to use multiplrocessing.
The confluent-kafka client leverages the high performance librdkafka
C client and is safe for multiple thread use.

This patch:
* switches to confluent-kafka library
* revises consumer and producer message operations
* utilizes event.tpool method for confluent-kafka blocking calls
* updates unit tests
* adds kafka specific timeouts for functional tests
* adds release note
