---------------------------------------------

[~azaroth] can you please take a look at this patch.

[~karande]  you might want to amend the git commit to remove the description and put that description in the JIRA it self.

> Add Kafka stream reader modules to consume data from Kafka framework

> Apache SAMOA is designed to process streaming data and develop streaming machine learning
> algorithm. Currently, SAMOA framework supports stream data read from Arff files only.
> Thus, while using SAMOA as a streaming machine learning component in real time use-cases,
> writing and reading data from files is slow and inefficient.
> A single Kafka broker can handle hundreds of megabytes of reads and writes per second 
> from thousands of clients. The ability to read data directly from Apache Kafka into SAMOA will 
> not only improve performance but also make SAMOA pluggable to many real time machine
> learning use cases such as Internet of Things(IoT).
> GOAL:
> Add code that enables SAMOA to read data from Apache Kafka as a stream data.
> Kafka stream reader supports following different options for streaming:
> a) Topic selection - Kafka topic to read data
> b) Partition selection - Kafka partition to read data
> c) Batching - Number of data instances read from Kafka in one read request to Kafka
> d) Configuration options - Kafka port number, seed information, time delay between two read requests
> Components:
> KafkaReader - Consists for APIs to read data from Kafka
> KafkaStream - Stream source for SAMOA providing data read from Kafka
> Dependencies for Kafka are added in pom.xml for in samoa-api component.
