Added support for consumer kwargs

[hemna]

I have an app that uses consumer, but needs to pass in some kwargs
for consumption at consumer function call time. This patch adds
kwargs support to consumer creation as well as passing those kwargs
at consumer callback time.

Hi @hemna, thanks for the PR. Not sure what the exact use case for this would be, but it doesn't make sense to me to be part of the package. Have you tried functools.partial ?

I am writing a gateway like app, which consumes messages from APRS-IS sends those parsed messages through some plugins and responds in separate threads. I need to pass along a queue object, so I can stuff messages to be sent in the queue, without using global variables. it makes sense to be allowed to pass various other params along with a consumer, to keep code clean without the need to use global vars everywhere.

This is the app I'm helping write:

I second hemna's pull request; I was about to submit the very same pull request.

Allowing the consumer to use kwargs instead of global variables would provide a much cleaner approach than today - which requires the use of global variables whenever you need to pass them to the consumer. In addition, adding kwargs support should be backwards compatible and is not going to break existing installations.
