Certain folks like to use Kafka as a front-end for all events. Rather than support native kafka, which is a lot of work, this PR supports sending to the Kafka REST Proxy via webhooks, which only requires slightly modifying the webhook content-type and wrapping the json in the format required by Kafka.
This also adds Kafka to the regression tests using the supported Kafka Docker images.
