KIP-724 — Drop support for message formats v0 and v1

Accepted Kafka 3.0 ProtocolBroker

Removes support for legacy Kafka message formats v0 and v1 (pre-0.11) in Kafka 4.0, after deprecating them in 3.0. These formats predate idempotent producers, transactions, record headers, and partition leader epochs, creating correctness risks and maintenance burden for code that must handle all three format variants.
