Pass kwargs from initialize_agent into agent classmethod (#799)
# Problem
I noticed that in order to change the prefix of the prompt in the
`zero-shot-react-description` agent
we had to dig around to subset strings deep into the agent's attributes.
It requires the user to inspect a long chain of attributes and classes.

`initialize_agent -> AgentExecutor -> Agent -> LLMChain -> Prompt from
Agent.create_prompt`

``` python
agent = initialize_agent(
    tools=tools,
    llm=fake_llm,
    agent="zero-shot-react-description"
)
prompt_str = agent.agent.llm_chain.prompt.template
new_prompt_str = change_prefix(prompt_str)
agent.agent.llm_chain.prompt.template = new_prompt_str
```

# Implemented Solution

`initialize_agent` accepts `**kwargs` but passes it to `AgentExecutor`
but not `ZeroShotAgent`, by simply giving the kwargs to the agent class
methods we can support changing the prefix and suffix for one agent
while allowing future agents to take advantage of `initialize_agent`.


```
agent = initialize_agent(
    tools=tools,
    llm=fake_llm,
    agent="zero-shot-react-description",
    agent_kwargs={"prefix": prefix, "suffix": suffix}
)
```

To be fair, this was before finding docs around custom agents here:
https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/agents/examples/custom_agent.html?highlight=custom%20#custom-llmchain
but i find that my use case just needed to change the prefix a little.


# Changes

* Pass kwargs to Agent class method
* Added a test to check suffix and prefix
