My understanding is that this logic is currently encapsulated in the broker
and the client doesn't really know at which epoch value the new producer id
is generated.  With the new protocol, the client would need to be aware.
We don't need to change the logic, just document it.  With our
implementation, once epoch reaches Short.MAX_VALUE it cannot be used
further, but a naïve client implementer may miss this point and it may be
missed in testing if the tests don't overflow the epoch, and then once they
hit the issue, it's not immediately obvious from the KIP how to handle it.
Explicitly documenting this point in the KIP would help to avoid (or
quickly resolve) such issues.
