Description

PropertiesFileConfigurationProvider.java javadoc is the reference to configure sinks.
Current documentation has the following to configure and hdfs sink

host1.sinks.hdfsSink.namenode = hdfs://localhost/

Trying out the hdfs sink and looking at the code this property isn't being used.
However hdfs.path is what is being used. I was able to get the HDFS sink working with the following
config

collector1.sinks.hdfs-sink1.hdfs.path = hdfs://localhost/

This patch addresses fixing the javadoc.
