Add Kafka monitoring template

I am 75% done with the Telegraf portion of this. Dashboards and alerts will be the easier part so I should have this done by mid-late next week.
@russorat do you have an opinion on the inclusion of ZK and/or Burrow in this Template? At first glance, I'd argue ZK is required but Burrow is not. The stuff I'd want to see from Burrow I could see with a) appropriate metrics from the broker side and/or b) monitoring the producers/consumers with Telegraf separately.
zookeeper is a requirement to run kafka still, so i would agree it's required.
burrow seems separate since not all kafka users leverage burrow.
@russorat yeah, monitoring ZK is for sure a required complement. I was just thinking whether or not it should be its own Template. I'm going to go with no for now and put both in this one!
