KIP-460 — Admin Leader Election RPC

Accepted Kafka 2.4 AdminBroker

Extends the AdminClient leader election API to support four election types — preferred, unclean, reassignment, and any — not just preferred replica elections. Previously only preferred replica election was accessible via the AdminClient; triggering an unclean election to restore availability when ISR is empty required direct ZooKeeper manipulation.
