View and modify Redpanda cluster configuration properties.

Modified properties are propagated immediately to all brokers. Use `rpk cluster config status` to verify that all brokers are up to date, and to identify any settings that were rejected, for example, if a broker is still restarting.

Cluster properties are Redpanda settings that apply to all brokers in the cluster.
