[jira] [Updated] (KAFKA-20131) ClassicKafkaConsumer does not clear endOffsetRequested flag on failed LIST_OFFSETS calls

> When {{ClassicKafkaConsumer.currentLag()}} is called, {{SubscriptionState.requestPartitionEndOffset()}} is called, which sets a per-partition flag named {{endOffsetRequested}}. This flag is later cleared by {{SubscriptionState.updateLastStableOffset()}}/{{SubscriptionState.updateHighWatermark()}} when a successful {{LIST_OFFSETS}} call is received. However, if the partition has an error code in the response, or the {{LIST_OFFSETS}} call itself fails, neither update method is called, and {{endOffsetRequested}} remains set. The problem is, on _any subsequent_ call to {{ClassicKafkaConsumer.currentLag()}}, the logic will see that {{endOffsetRequested}} is already set, and the offset request will be silently ignored.
> The fix is to ensure that {{endOffsetRequested}} is cleared out even on failure cases.
> Note: this is the companion ticket to KAFKA-20187 which affects the {{AsyncKafkaConsumer}}.
