https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/1386
@abhishekagarwal87 didn't see this merged in. Instead of overriding the
kafka.version for storm-kafka lets add another param to pom.xml and keep it at
0.8.2.1 and use that as kafka version for storm-kafka. This way distributors
can override the kafka version for both storm-kafka and storm-kafka-client by
passing kafka.version and new param for storm-kafka instead of keep building it
0.8.2.1 and for apache it will work as this patch intended.
