This utility is only suitable for unit tests and therefore is defined in the test JAR of the `debezium-core` module. It certainly should never be used for production purposes.
Changed the EmbeddedConnector framework to initialize all major components via configuration properties rather than through the public builder. This increases the size of the configurations, but it simplifies what embedding applications must do to obtain an EmbeddedConnector instance.
The DatabaseHistory framework was also changed to be configurable in similar ways to the OffsetBackingStore. Essentially, connectors that want to use it (like the MySqlConnector) will describe it as part of the connector's configuration, allowing more flexibility in which DatabaseHistory implementation is used and how it is configured whether in Kafka Connector or as part of the EmbeddedConnector.
Added a README.md to `debezium-embedded` to provide documentation and sample code showing how to use the EmbeddedConnector.
Adds a small framework for recording the DDL operations on the schema state (e.g., Tables) as they are read and applied from the log, and when restarting the connector task to recover the accumulated schema state. Where and how the DDL operations are recorded is an abstraction called `DatabaseHistory`, with three options: in-memory (primarily for testing purposes), file-based (for embedded cases and perhaps standalone Kafka Connect uses), and Kafka (for normal Kafka Connect deployments).
The `DatabaseHistory` interface methods take several parameters that are used to construct a `SourceRecord`. The `SourceRecord` type was not used, however, since that would result in this interface (and potential extension mechanism) having a dependency on and exposing the Kafka API. Instead, the more general parameters are used to keep the API simple.
The `FileDatabaseHistory` and `MemoryDatabaseHistory` implementations are both fairly simple, but the `FileDatabaseHistory` relies upon representing each recorded change as a JSON document. This is simple, is easily written to files, allows for recovery of data from the raw file, etc. Although this was done initially using Jackson, the code to read and write the JSON documents required a lot of boilerplate. Instead, the `Document` framework developed during Debezium's very early prototype stages was brought back. It provides a very usable API for working with documents, including the ability to compare documents semantically (e.g., numeric values are converted to be able to compare their numeric values rather than just compare representations) and with or without field order.
The `KafkaDatabaseHistory` is a bit more complicated, since it uses a Kafka broker to record all database schema changes on a single topic with single partition, and then upon restart uses it to recover the history from the dedicated topics. This implementation also records the changes as JSON documents, keeping it simple and independent of the Kafka Connect converters.
The connector is in a basic working state, although it is not well tested yet and upon restart does not recover the schema state from the previous run.
