---------------------------------------
Removing from the 3.2.0 release since code freeze has passed.
> Consider changing default log.message.timestamp.difference.max.ms

> The default `log.message.timestamp.difference.max.ms` is Long.MaxValue, which
> means the broker will accept arbitrary timestamps. The broker relies on
> timestamps internally for deciding when a segments should be rolled and when
> they should be deleted. A buggy client which is producing messages with
> timestamps too far in the future or past can cause segments to roll
> frequently which can lead to open file exhaustion, or it can cause segments
> to be retained indefinitely which can lead to disk space exhaustion.
> In https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4340, it was proposed to set
> the default equal to `log.retention.ms`, which still seems to make sense.
> This was rejected for two reasons as far as I can tell. First was
> compatibility, which just means we would need a major upgrade. The second is
> that we previously did not have a way to tell the user which record had
> violated the max timestamp difference, but now we have
