KIP-549 — Surface Consumer's Metadata in KafkaAdminClient#describeConsumerGroups
Discussion AdminConsumer
Surfaces raw consumer group member metadata (subscription bytes) through KafkaAdminClient#describeConsumerGroups() instead of discarding it. The DescribeGroupsResponse already contains member metadata, but the AdminClient API drops it, making it impossible to inspect what topics each member is subscribed to without implementing the protocol parsing manually.
