KAFKA-2941: Clarify docs for key and value Converters
----
> Docs for key/value converter in Kafka connect are unclear
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-2941
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2941
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: KafkaConnect
> Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0
> Reporter: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
> Assignee: Ewen Cheslack-Postava
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.10.1.0
>
>
> These docs don't really explain what the configs do or why users might want
> to change them.
> Via [~gwenshap], something like this would be better: "Converter class for
> key Connect data. This controls the format of the data that will be written
> either to Kafka or to a sink system. Popular formats include Json and Avro"
