Some jira cleanup

[Sönke Liebau <so...@opencore.com.INVALID>]

All,

I left a few comments on some old but still open jiras in an attempt to
clean up a little bit.

Since probably no one would notice these comments I thought I'd quickly
list them here to give people a chance to check on them:

KAFKA-217 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-217>: Client test
suite
KAFKA-517 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-517>: Ensure that we
escape the metric names if they include user strings
KAFKA-659 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-659>: Support
request pipelining in the network server
KAFKA-817 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-817>: Implement a
zookeeper path-based controlled shutdown tool
KAFKA-859 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-859>: support basic
auth protection of mx4j console
KAFKA-1015 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1015>:
documentation for inbuilt offset management
KAFKA-1021 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1021>: Write a tool
to check replica lag for individual topic partitions


I'll wait a few days for objections and then close these issues.

Also, as a heads up, I'll try and spent some time on this more or less
regularly in the future, is the approach of notifying everybody on the
mailing list fine for everybody?

Best regards,
Sönke
