Configuring outbox connector;

[gunnarmorling]

The "Expand JSON SMT" (https://github.com/RedHatInsights/expandjsonsmt/)
is used for un-stringifying the outbox event payload. As this SMT only works
for specific fields and not the entire message (see RedHatInsights/expandjsonsmt#10),
the payload is first hoisted into a temporary field, then un-stringified and finally
promoted to the top level of the Kafka message value again.

Hey @kbastani, this gives a nice event structure finally:

{"createdAt":1624638360969,"lastModified":1624638371355,"status":"ORDER_ASSIGNED","accountId":62941725,"restaurant":{"id":4,"storeId":7946,"name":"California & Battery","city":"San Francisco","country":"US","latitude":37.793060302734375,"longitude":-122.3997573852539},"links":[],"orderId":976}

The topic is debezium.Order now. I think you can consume that data and sink it into Pinot now? Or is anything else needed for doing so?

Awesome! I'll merge in and get to work on updating the schema configuration for the Pinot tables.
