Colin,

I just rebased KAFKA-3600's PR on trunk.

KAFKA-4457 is a good idea, however it is probably doing some redundant
work. AdminClient has a network client that will already have api versions
info (after KAFKA-3600 goes in), so I do not think we need to send out
another ApiVersions request over wire.
