[KIP-460] ElectLeaders implementation public API changes and document…

…ation improvement (#1833)

- ElectionType confluent_kafka as in Java
- dictionary value is a KafkaError as it's not thrown
- ElectionType should be added to documentation .rst
- docstring changes
- tests without brokers with successful validation that leads to a timeout
- example elects leaders for all partitions in case no partition is specified
