I think UpdateOffsetException shouldn't extend FailedFetchException . They
meant to be different exceptions . The problem here is if a method throws
UpdateOffsetException and there is a catch for FailedFetchException its get
caught in that catch but we want to have different behavior for
FailedFetchException and UpdateOffsetException. Also UpdateOffsetException can
be named differently, may be TopicOffsetOutOfRangeException and for any other
errors use FailedFetchException.
