/**
 * @brief \b Consumer: Set rebalance callback for use with

 *
 * The \p err field is set to either RD_KAFKA_RESP_ERR__ASSIGN_PARTITIONS
 * or RD_KAFKA_RESP_ERR__REVOKE_PARTITIONS and 'partitions'
 * contains the full partition set that was either assigned or revoked.
 *
 * Registering a \p rebalance_cb turns off librdkafka's automatic
 * partition assignment/revocation and instead delegates that responsibility
 * to the application's \p rebalance_cb.
 *
 * The rebalance callback is responsible for updating librdkafka's
 * assignment set based on the two events: RD_KAFKA_RESP_ERR__ASSIGN_PARTITIONS
 * and RD_KAFKA_RESP_ERR__REVOKE_PARTITIONS but should also be able to handle
 * arbitrary rebalancing failures where \p err is neither of those.
 * @remark In this latter case (arbitrary error), the application must
 *         call rd_kafka_assign(rk, NULL) to synchronize state.
 *
 * Without a rebalance callback this is done automatically by librdkafka
 * but registering a rebalance callback gives the application flexibility
 * in performing other operations along with the assigning/revocation,
 * such as fetching offsets from an alternate location (on assign)
 * or manually committing offsets (on revoke).
 *
 * @remark The \p partitions list is destroyed by librdkafka on return
 *         return from the rebalance_cb and must not be freed or
 *         saved by the application.
 *
 * @remark Be careful when modifying the \p partitions list.
 *         Changing this list should only be done to change the initial
 *         offsets for each partition.
 *         But a function like `rd_kafka_position()` might have unexpected
 *         effects for instance when a consumer gets assigned a partition
 *         it used to consume at an earlier rebalance. In this case, the
 *         list of partitions will be updated with the old offset for that
 *         partition. In this case, it is generally better to pass a copy
 *         of the list (see `rd_kafka_topic_partition_list_copy()`).
 *         The result of `rd_kafka_position()` is typically outdated in
 *         RD_KAFKA_RESP_ERR__ASSIGN_PARTITIONS.

/**
 * @brief Produce and send a single message to broker.
 *
 * \p rkt is the target topic which must have been previously created with
 * `rd_kafka_topic_new()`.
 *
 * `rd_kafka_produce()` is an asynch non-blocking API.
 * See `rd_kafka_conf_set_dr_msg_cb` on how to setup a callback to be called
 * once the delivery status (success or failure) is known. The delivery report
 * is trigged by the application calling `rd_kafka_poll()` (at regular
 * intervals) or `rd_kafka_flush()` (at termination). 
 *
 * Since producing is asynchronous, you should call `rd_kafka_flush()` before
 * you destroy the producer. Otherwise, any outstanding messages will be
 * silently discarded.
 *
 * When temporary errors occur, librdkafka automatically retries to produce the
 * messages. Retries are triggered after retry.backoff.ms and when the
 * leader broker for the given partition is available. Otherwise, librdkafka
 * falls back to polling the topic metadata to monitor when a new leader is
 * elected (see the topic.metadata.refresh.fast.interval.ms and
 * topic.metadata.refresh.interval.ms configurations) and then performs a
 * retry. A delivery error will occur if the message could not be produced
 * within message.timeout.ms.
 *
 * See the "Message reliability" chapter in INTRODUCTION.md for more
 * information.
 *
 * \p partition is the target partition, either:
 *   - RD_KAFKA_PARTITION_UA (unassigned) for
 *     automatic partitioning using the topic's partitioner function, or
 *   - a fixed partition (0..N)
 *
 * \p msgflags is zero or more of the following flags OR:ed together:
 *    RD_KAFKA_MSG_F_BLOCK - block \p produce*() call if
 *                           \p queue.buffering.max.messages or
 *                           \p queue.buffering.max.kbytes are exceeded.
 *                           Messages are considered in-queue from the point they
 *                           are accepted by produce() until their corresponding
 *                           delivery report callback/event returns.
 *                           It is thus a requirement to call 
 *                           rd_kafka_poll() (or equiv.) from a separate
 *                           thread when F_BLOCK is used.
 *                           See WARNING on \c RD_KAFKA_MSG_F_BLOCK above.
 *
 *    RD_KAFKA_MSG_F_FREE - rdkafka will free(3) \p payload when it is done
 *                          with it.
 *    RD_KAFKA_MSG_F_COPY - the \p payload data will be copied and the 
 *                          \p payload pointer will not be used by rdkafka
 *                          after the call returns.
 *    RD_KAFKA_MSG_F_PARTITION - produce_batch() will honour per-message
 *                               partition, either set manually or by the
 *                               configured partitioner.
 *
 *    .._F_FREE and .._F_COPY are mutually exclusive.
 *
 *    If the function returns -1 and RD_KAFKA_MSG_F_FREE was specified, then
 *    the memory associated with the payload is still the caller's
 *    responsibility.
 *
 * \p payload is the message payload of size \p len bytes.
 *
 * \p key is an optional message key of size \p keylen bytes, if non-NULL it
 * will be passed to the topic partitioner as well as be sent with the
 * message to the broker and passed on to the consumer.
 *
 * \p msg_opaque is an optional application-provided per-message opaque
 * pointer that will provided in the delivery report callback (`dr_cb`) for
 * referencing this message.
 *
 * @remark on_send() and on_acknowledgement() interceptors may be called
 *         from this function. on_acknowledgement() will only be called if the
 *         message fails partitioning.
 *
 * @returns 0 on success or -1 on error in which case errno is set accordingly:
 *  - ENOBUFS  - maximum number of outstanding messages has been reached:
 *               "queue.buffering.max.messages"
 *               (RD_KAFKA_RESP_ERR__QUEUE_FULL)

/**
 * @name Interceptors
 *
 * @{
 *
 * @brief A callback interface that allows message interception for both
 *        producer and consumer data pipelines.
 *
 * Except for the on_new(), on_conf_set(), on_conf_dup() and on_conf_destroy()
 * interceptors, interceptors are added to the
 * newly created rd_kafka_t client instance. These interceptors MUST only
 * be added from on_new() and MUST NOT be added after rd_kafka_new() returns.
 *
 * The on_new(), on_conf_set(), on_conf_dup() and on_conf_destroy() interceptors
 * are added to the configuration object which is later passed to
 * rd_kafka_new() where on_new() is called to allow addition of
 * other interceptors.
 *
 * Each interceptor reference consists of a display name (ic_name),
 * a callback function, and an application-specified opaque value that is
 * passed as-is to the callback.
 * The ic_name must be unique for the interceptor implementation and is used
 * to reject duplicate interceptor methods.
 *
 * Any number of interceptors can be added and they are called in the order
 * they were added, unless otherwise noted.
 * The list of registered interceptor methods are referred to as
 * interceptor chains.
 *
 * @remark Contrary to the Java client the librdkafka interceptor interface
 *         does not support message key and value modification.
 *         Message mutability is discouraged in the Java client and the
 *         combination of serializers and headers cover most use-cases.
 *
 * @remark Interceptors are NOT copied to the new configuration on
 *         rd_kafka_conf_dup() since it would be hard for interceptors to
 *         track usage of the interceptor's opaque value.
 *         An interceptor should rely on the plugin, which will be copied
 *         in rd_kafka_conf_conf_dup(), to set up the initial interceptors.
 *         An interceptor should implement the on_conf_dup() method
 *         to manually set up its internal configuration on the newly created
 *         configuration object that is being copied-to based on the
 *         interceptor-specific configuration properties.
 *         conf_dup() should thus be treated the same as conf_init().
 *
 * @remark Interceptors are keyed by the interceptor type (on_..()), the
 *         interceptor name (ic_name) and the interceptor method function.
 *         Duplicates are not allowed and the .._add_on_..() method will
 *         return RD_KAFKA_RESP_ERR__CONFLICT if attempting to add a duplicate
 *         method.
 *         The only exception is on_conf_destroy() which may be added multiple
 *         times by the same interceptor to allow proper cleanup of
 *         interceptor configuration state.

 * back to the application.
 * The supplied queue may be any queue, such as a temporary single-call queue,
 * a shared queue used for multiple requests, or even the main queue or
 * consumer queues.
 *
 * Use \c rd_kafka_queue_poll() to collect the result of an admin operation
 * from the queue of your choice, then extract the admin API-specific result
 * type by using the corresponding \c rd_kafka_event_CreateTopics_result,
 * \c rd_kafka_event_DescribeConfigs_result, etc, methods.
 * Use the getter methods on the \c .._result_t type to extract response
 * information and finally destroy the result and event by calling
 * \c rd_kafka_event_destroy().
 *
 * Use rd_kafka_event_error() and rd_kafka_event_error_string() to acquire
 * the request-level error/success for an Admin API request.
 * Even if the returned value is \c RD_KAFKA_RESP_ERR_NO_ERROR there
 * may be individual objects (topics, resources, etc) that have failed.
 * Extract per-object error information with the corresponding
 * \c rd_kafka_..._result_topics|resources|..() to check per-object errors.
