CI seems to be failing with a trident kafka test hanging.
The code appears to provide a best effort replay, but that is neither at
least once nor at most once, so it is likely to cause issues for some
topologies that don't expect this a-typical behavior. I am not an expert on
the kafka API, but it looks like auto.commit.enable is inherently incompatible
with what storm wants from a well behaved spout.
