I think if we can shade all the storm-druid dependencies we could probably
leave it there.
At-least a few of the other storm connectors have not been updated in a
while but we still keep it. Similarly we can just mark storm-druid deprecated
(and recommend kafka based ingestion) in the README.md or somewhere. By 3.0
timeline, if there are no users we can even consider dropping it.---
