[FLINK-4702] [kafka connector] Commit offets to Kafka asynchronously
The offset commit calls to Kafka may occasionally take very long. In that
case, the notifyCheckpointComplete() method blocks for long and the
KafkaConsumer cannot make progress and cannot perform checkpoints.
This pull request changes the offset committing to use Kafka's
`commitAsync()` method.
It also makes sure that no more than one commit is concurrently in
progress, to that commit requests do not pile up.
You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running:
$ git pull https://github.com/StephanEwen/incubator-flink kafka_commit_async
