Changing target fix version to 4.0 since this is not a blocker and we are past
code freeze
> Review minimal effort approach on consumer last heartbeat on unsubscribe

> Key: KAFKA-15954
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15954
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: clients, consumer
> Reporter: Lianet Magrans
> Assignee: Lianet Magrans
> Priority: Major
> Labels: kip-848-client-support, reconciliation
> Fix For: 3.9.0

>
> Currently the legacy and new consumer follows a minimal effort approach when
> sending a leave group (legacy) or last heartbeat request (new consumer). The
> request is sent without waiting/handling any response. This behaviour applies
> when the consumer is being closed or when it unsubscribes.
> For the case when the consumer is being closed, (which is a "terminal"
> state), it probably makes sense to just follow a minimal effort approach for
> "properly" leaving the group (no retry logic). But for the case of
> unsubscribe, we could consider if valuable to to put a little more effort
> into making sure that the last heartbeat is sent and received by the broker
> (ex. what if coordinator not known/available when sending the last HB). Note
> that unsubscribe could a temporary state, where the consumer might want to
> re-join the group at any time.
