KIP-1154 — Extending support for Microsecond Precision for Kafka Connect

Discussion Connect

Extends Kafka Connect's timestamp logical type support to include microsecond (`timestamp-micros`) and nanosecond (`timestamp-nanos`) precision alongside the existing millisecond-only `Timestamp` type. Source systems and formats such as Avro and Parquet support sub-millisecond timestamp precision; Connect's millisecond truncation silently loses precision when ingesting or egressing high-resolution timestamp data.
