KIP-75 — Add per-connector Converters

Accepted Kafka 1.0 Connect

Allows per-connector overrides of key.converter and value.converter in Kafka Connect, falling back to the worker-level defaults when not specified. The worker-level converter configuration was global and immutable per Connect cluster, forcing operators to run separate clusters when different connectors required different data formats.
