Review Comment:
   Hmm... I think this may be too short. With sink connectors it's fairly 
straightforward to alter consumer group offsets, but for source connectors we 
have to start and complete a read-to-end of the offsets topic, then write the 
new offsets to it. And in both cases, we have the `alterOffsets` connector 
method to worry about as well.
   
   Can we make the `Worker` API for altering offsets asynchronous, similar to 
what we do for reading offsets?
   
   I know that there's concern about tasks being brought up for the connector 
while the request is being handled, but I think this might be alright.
   
   If the connector is a sink connector, the requests to alter its consumer 
group's offsets will be rejected by the broker if any tasks are active.
   
   If the connector is a source connector and exactly-once support is enabled, 
zombie fencing will take place and we won't be able to complete our write to 
the offsets topic.
   
   Unless I'm mistaken, the only case that's left is non-exactly-once source 
connectors, which IMO it's acceptable for us to ignore since we can't guarantee 
that there aren't zombie tasks running around writing their own offsets anyways.
