Manually specified Partition Map should be possible yet it seems to be impossible with the current API

[pereferrera]

Current API methods don't seem to provide a way of specifying a manual Partition Map and avoid the sampling step. It should be possible to do that.

[pereferrera]

The same applies for variable per-partition replication factor, or even custom ReplicationMaps, which is also possible yet hidden in the current API.
