KIP-635 — GetOffsetShell: support for multiple topics and consumer configuration override
Accepted Kafka 3.0 Admin
Extends `GetOffsetShell` (via `kafka-get-offsets.sh`) to support querying multiple topics in a single invocation, adds `--bootstrap-servers` as an alias for `--broker-list`, and allows passing additional consumer configuration overrides. The tool currently accepts only a single topic per invocation and uses the non-standard `--broker-list` argument name, requiring users to script around it to fetch offsets for multiple topics.
