-----------------------------------
Hi Luke, how about changing log to DEBUG level and use message like:
"The DescribeTopicPartitions request API version is not supported, falling back
to use Metadata API to describe topics."
> "DescribeTopicPartitions API is not supported" warning message confuses users

> When running describeTopics admin API, we'll try to invoke

> supported, and then log a warning message:
> {code:java}

> clientId=adminclient-17] The DescribeTopicPartitions API is not supported,
> using Metadata API to describe topics.{code}

> When seeing this warning message, users might think something is wrong with
> this call. We should try to improve it. Maybe:
> 1. log it with an INFO level or DEBUG level
> 2. Make the message clear to not to confuse users
