Description

The SyncProducer class will send messages to invalid partitions without throwing an exception or otherwise alerting the user.

Reproduction:
Run the kafka-simple-consumer-shell.sh script with an invalid partition number. An exception will be thrown and displayed. Run the kafka-producer-shell.sh with the same partition number. You will be able to send messages without any errors.
