**DO NOT MERGE UNTIL IT IS DETERMINED WHETHER THIS REQUIRED A KIP.** See [KAFKA-13028](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13028) The AbstractConfig constructor is changed to instantiate and configure each ConfigProvider instance in the same order as defined by the 'config.providers' property. And when configuring a ConfigProvider, it uses any previously-configured ConfigProvider instances to potentially resolve any variables in that ConfigProvider's configuration. New unit tests are added to verify this change in behavior. ### Committer Checklist (excluded from commit message) - [ ] Verify design and implementation - [ ] Verify test coverage and CI build status - [ ] Verify documentation (including upgrade notes) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
