   I am not 100% sure if the PR make sense? While AK 4.0 brokers don't support 
older client versions any longer, Kafka Streams is also compatible to older 
broker version.
   
   Thus, one could use a 3.x broker, and upgrade Kafka Streams 0.11.0 to 4.0... 
To be fair, we would only test this upgrade using `trunk` for brokers right 
now, what would break as the older client could not connect to a `trunk` 
broker, but I don't think the broker versions actually matters for what we want 
to test. In the end, we test if we can upgrade KS client side, which is more or 
less independent of the user broker version.
   
   Thus, I am actually wondering, if we should instead rewrite the 
corresponding system test, to use broker version 3.9 to test upgrading older KS 
versions to 4.0+ client side
