[contrib, connector-wikiedits] Add WikipediaEditsSource
A non-parallel source that parses a live stream of Wikipedia edits.
Meta data about the edits is mirrored to the IRC channel `#en.wikipedia`.
The source establishes a connection to this IRC channel and parses the messages
into `WikipediaEditEvent` instances.
The purpose of this source is to ease the setup of demos of the
`DataStream` API with live data.
The original idea is from the [Hello
Samza](https://samza.apache.org/startup/hello-samza/latest/) project of [Apache
Samza](http://samza.apache.org). The Samza code for this is located in the
[samza-hello-samza](https://github.com/apache/samza-hello-samza) repository.
## Example
Add the following dependency to your project:
```xml
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
<artifactId>flink-connector-wikiedits</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
```
You can use the source like regular sources:
```java
StreamExecutionEnvironment env = StreamExecutionEnvironment
.getExecutionEnvironment();
DataStream<WikipediaEditEvent> edits = env
.addSource(new WikipediaEditsSource());
```
