Administer the Kafka topology centrally

Topics and accounts on the shared cluster belong to the platform team, for the
same reason the gateway defaults do: an ACL is not a team's decision to make
about itself, and a partition count is not a team's decision to make about the
cluster.

They had been pushed into the application repos on the argument that ownership
follows use. That argument holds for a contract, not for a grant.

Self-service is a different thing and does not come from moving these files: it
comes from an event gateway that virtualises topics and a developer portal that
socialises them.
