Thank you for opening a pull request to fix the issue.
I think we also need to cover another case: What happens when the number of
shards has been reduced in a resharding and some fetchers are now without a
shard? I think in that case, the worker also needs to emit a final
Long.MAX_VALUE, and it has to fail once it gets a shard assigned again.
