    [FLINK-4439] Validate 'bootstrap.servers' config in flink kafka consu…

    Hello everybody, 
    
    I would like to contribute a small improvement to Flink. 
    Lately, I was using the FlinkKafkaConsumer08 to write a streaming topology 
in flink. Somehow I mistakenly configured the 'boostrap.servers' for the kafka 
config with invalid hosts. 
    
    The message that flink provided was not clearly stating what the problem 
was. Hence, my improvement consists of a validation of the servers provided in 
'boostrap.servers'. 
    
    If none of the configured servers are valid then we should fail-fast and a 
validation exception should be thrown. If at lease one server is valid then we 
don't throw any exception.
    
    See for more info: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4439
