New release branch 3.0

[Konstantine Karantasis <kk...@apache.org>]

Hi Kafka developers and friends,

The release branch for Apache Kafka 3.0 (with version 3.0.0) has been
created
(https://github.com/apache/kafka/tree/3.0).

The trunk branch is about to be bumped to 3.1.0-SNAPSHOT via
https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/10981

At this point, I'll be reviewing the open JIRA tickets to move every
non-blocker from this release to the next one.

Going forward, most changes should land only on the trunk branch.

Blockers (existing and new that we discover while testing the release) will
be double-committed.
Please discuss with your reviewers whether your PR should go to trunk or to
trunk as well as 3.0 so they can merge accordingly.

The 3.0 branch going live is an excellent opportunity to focus on testing
the features you aim to include in the upcoming release and making sure
that tests are stable, dependable and offer good coverage.

Please help us test the release and make sure it gets out the door stable
and with high quality.

Sincerely,
Konstantine

Thanks for the heads up Konstantine:

I am currently working on these issues below and should send new PRs by the
end of the week.

My changes should be merged into the 3.0 branch as well as trunk. I have
marked them as "blockers" for tracking purposes and for the PR merges.

*Add Missing Class-Level Javadoc to Descendants of
org.apache.kafka.common.errors.ApiException*
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-12644

*Migrate all Tests to New API and Remove Suppression for Deprecation
Warnings related to KIP-633*
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-12994

*Improve Javadocs for API Changes from KIP-633*
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13021

They are all improvements and the release can proceed without it but I
wanted to make the workflow smoother.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks.
