Review Comment:
   Should we avoid throwing the error and return message-only metadata when the 
offset is lesser than the log-start-offset?
   
   While updating the 
[UnifiedLog#updateLogStartOffset](https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/apache/kafka@5f933ac840343429e911f5706ccb7cd8dc379462/-/blob/core/src/main/scala/kafka/log/UnifiedLog.scala?L535),
 the HWM also gets updated and it doesn't hit the `fetchHighWatermarkMetadata` 
(or) `convertToOffsetMetadataOrThrow` so the call will succeed even when 
current-log-start-offset > old-HWM.
