> Currently "auto.offset.reset" is used to initialize the start offset of FlinkKafkaConsumer, and the value should be earliest/latest/none. This method can only let the job comsume the beginning or the most recent data, but can not specify the specific offset of Kafka began to consume.
> So, there should be a configuration item (such as "flink.source.start.time" and the format is "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss") that allows user to configure the initial offset of Kafka. The action of "flink.source.start.time" is as follows:
> 1) job start from checkpoint / savepoint
> a> offset of partition can be restored from checkpoint/savepoint, "flink.source.start.time" will be ignored.
> b> there's no checkpoint/savepoint for the partition (For example, this partition is newly increased), the "flink.kafka.start.time" will be used to initialize the offset of the partition
> 2) job has no checkpoint / savepoint, the "flink.source.start.time" is used to initialize the offset of the kafka
> a> the "flink.source.start.time" is valid, use it to set the offset of kafka
> b> the "flink.source.start.time" is out-of-range, the same as it does currently with no initial offset, get kafka's current offset and start reading
