Bob Barrett updated KAFKA-10059:
--------------------------------
Description:
When listing consumer group offsets through the admin client, the map that we
return has a null `OffsetAndMetadata` value if the partition has no committed
offset:
```// Negative offset indicates that the group has no committed offset for this
partition
if (offset < 0) {
groupOffsetsListing.put(topicPartition, null);
}
```
It would be better to return a non-null value that indicates the lack of an
offset, such as `OffsetAndMetadata(-1, Optional.empty(), metadata)`.
