Review comment:
       Hmm... I don't believe "cancelled" is a term we've used in public-facing 
surfaces in the past. For example, when a task takes too long to shut down now 
and we have to cancel it, we log the message that "Graceful stop... failed": 
https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/5964401bf9aab611bd4a072941bd1c927e044258/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/Worker.java#L866
   
   Personally I think the additional code complexity is worth it; the original 
ticket mentions a case where these messages confuse users because they're 
generated for cancelled tasks, so I'd rather err on the side of making things 
as obvious as possible to them.
   
   It might be possible to keep things simple and eliminate branches by 
tweaking the message to make it clear that newer task instances won't be 
impacted by this failure, though. A possible downside to this is that it might 
be confusing if there are no newer instances that will be brought up on the 
worker (because the connector has been deleted, the number of tasks has been 
reduced, or the task has been reassigned to another worker). But with some 
careful wording we might be able to avoid misleading people into thinking that 
this message implies there's already another instance running.
