kafka pull request: Rack-Aware replica assignment option

GitHub user jmlvanre opened a pull request:

    Rack-Aware replica assignment option

    Adding a rack-id to kafka config. This rack-id can be used during replica assignment by using the max-rack-replication argument in the admin scripts (create topic, etc.). By default the original replication assignment algorithm is used because max-rack-replication defaults to -1. max-rack-replication > -1 is not honored if you are doing manual replica assignment (preffered).
    
    If this looks good I can add some test cases specific to the rack-aware assignment.

You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running:

    $ git pull https://github.com/jmlvanre/kafka 0.8
