Which ACLs does KafkaHQ need?

[crunchtime-ali]

Which ACLs does KafkaHQ require for its Kafka-access? I don't want to run it with superuser.

I never play with ACL a lot & depending on usage you want to have for KafkaHQ

If you want a read only, this one may be sufficient :

• DESCRIBE
• DESCRIBE_CONFIGS
• READ | Group | OffsetFetch
• READ | Topic | Fetch

To interact with the offset you will need : READ | Group | OffsetCommit READ | Topic | OffsetCommit

If you want to do more :

• CREATE
• DELETE
• ALTER | Cluster | CreateAcls
• ALTER | Cluster | DeleteAcls
• ALTER_CONFIGS | Cluster | AlterConfigs
• ALTER_CONFIGS | Topic | AlterConfigs

If you have some goof feedback on this, a PR on README will be really appreciate :+1:

I tried to give it read only access (read and describe) and this was not working in an older version. Perhaps it's ok now..
