confluent-kafka-go v1.0.0

This release adds support for librdkafka v1.0.0, featuring the EOS Idempotent Producer, Sparse connections, KIP-62 - max.poll.interval.ms support, zstd, and more.

See the librdkafka v1.0.0 release notes for more information and upgrade considerations.

Go client enhancements

• Now requires librdkafka v1.0.0.
• A new IsFatal() function has been added to KafkaError to help the application differentiate between temporary and fatal errors. Fatal errors are currently only triggered by the idempotent producer.
• Added kafka.NewError() to make it possible to create error objects from user code / unit test (Artem Yarulin)

Go client fixes

• Deprecate the use of default.topic.config. Topic configuration should now be set on the standard ConfigMap.
• Reject delivery.report.only.error=true on producer creation (#306)
• Avoid use of "Deprecated: " prefix (#268)
• PartitionEOF must now be explicitly enabled thru enable.partition.eof
