KIP-950 — Tiered Storage Disablement
Accepted Kafka 3.9 Tiered Storage
Adds the ability to disable Tiered Storage on a per-topic basis after it has been enabled, including draining remote segments back to local storage before disabling. KIP-405 introduced Tiered Storage enablement but provided no mechanism to reverse it, leaving operators without a path to recover topics from tiered storage or roll back the feature.
