Avoid direct connection to destination zookeeper #228

Since Kafka official clients are avoiding Zookeeper direct access, should uReplicator take the same way?

This would simplify final user setup and prepare uReplicator for future Kafka upgrades.

I think that implementing a KafkaBrokerTopicObserver without Zookeeper would avoid a Zookeeper destination connection.

Am I rigth? Does PRs in this direction make sense?
