[FLINK-4020][streaming-connectors] Move shard list querying to open() for
Kinesis consumer
Remove shard list querying from the constructor, and let all subtasks
independently discover which shards it should consume from in open(). This
change is a prerequisite for
[FLINK-3231](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3231).
Explanation for some changes that might seem irrelevant:
1. Changed naming of some variables / methods: Since the behaviour of shard
assignment to subtasks is now (and will continue to be in the future after
FLINK-3231) more like "discovering shards for consuming" instead of "being
assigned shards", I've changed the "assignedShards" related namings to
"discoveredShards".
2. I've removed some tests, due to the fact that the corresponding parts of
the code will be subject to quite a bit of change with the upcoming changes of
[FLINK-3231](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3231). Tests will be
added back with FLINK-3231.
