KAFKA-5291: AdminClient should not trigger auto creation of topics
- Added a boolean allow_auto_topic_creation to MetadataRequest.
I didn’t bump the version a second time since we did it once for this
release already, but this needs to be verified.
- Set it to false in the new AdminClient and StreamsKafkaClient
(which exists for the purpose of creating topics manually); set it
to true everywhere else for now. Other clients will eventually
rely on client-side auto topic creation, but that’s not there yet.

>
> Feedback from people who tried the AdminClient is that auto topic creation
> during describe is very confusing. We expected that, but we also thought that
> there wasn't much that could be done.
> However, there's a simple solution (suggested by [~hachikuji]): make it
> possible to disallow auto topic creation when sending the metadata request.
> We can keep the existing behaviour for the producer and consumer (until we
> move to client-side auto topic creation) while doing the right thing for
> AdminClient (which is new).
