Research direction

Start at the func invoke CLI entry point and the func.yaml configuration fields KAFKA_BROKERS and KAFKA_TOPICS. Review the blocked func-go#176 producing support, then verify that invoking a Kafka function sends a test message to the configured topic.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

func invoke currently only works for HTTP functions. Add support for invoking Kafka functions by producing a test message to the configured topic. The CLI should read KAFKA_BROKERS and KAFKA_TOPICS from func.yaml and send a message.

Blocked by knative-extensions/func-go#176 (producing support — CLI needs to produce messages to a Kafka topic).
