My main concern with allowing overrides of this method, is that override
implementations can potentially completely ignore the `configProps` settings
and create a Kinesis client entirely irrelevant from the original
configuration. IMO, this is not nice design-wise.
As a different approach, would it be possible to traverse keys in the
`configProps` and set the `ClientConfiguration` appropriately, such that we
won't need to be aware of all updated / new keys in the AWS Kinesis SDK?
Ideally, Flink should not need to maintain its own set of config keys and just
rely on AWS's keys (for example, Flink actually should not need to define its
own config keys for AWS credentials).
