   @dajac, @chia7712 I realise now that I was wrong about 2. It's not a problem 
because `KafkaFuture.whenComplete` and `thenApply` are using 
`KafkaFuture.BiConsumer` and `KafkaFuture.Function`, not the ones from 
`java.util.function`, and so they're distinct from the ones inherited from 
`CompletionStage`. It would mean subtly different behaviour between the 
overloaded methods, which isn't ideal, but it is possible. 
   
   That leaves 1, which is a source incompatibility, but not a binary 
incompatibility. Perhaps, with the `@InterfaceStability.Evolving` that's enough 
to justify implementing `CompletionStage`, wdyt?
