    KAFKA-1595; Remove deprecated and slower scala JSON parser

    A thin wrapper over Jackson's Tree Model API is used as the replacement. 
This wrapper
    increases safety while providing a simple, but powerful API through the 
usage of the
    `DecodeJson` type class. Even though this has a maintenance cost, it makes 
the API
    much more convenient from Scala. A number of tests were added to verify the
    behaviour of this wrapper.
    
    The Scala module for Jackson doesn't provide any help for our current 
usage, so we don't
    depend on it.
    
    An attempt has been made to maintain the existing behaviour regarding when 
exceptions
    are thrown. There are a number of cases where `JsonMappingException` will 
be thrown
    instead of `ClassCastException`, however. It is expected that users would 
not try to catch
    `ClassCastException`.
