KAFKA-3854: Fix issues with new consumer's subsequent regex (pattern)
subscriptions
This patch fixes two issues:
1. Subsequent regex subscriptions fail with the new consumer.
2. Subsequent regex subscriptions would not immediately refresh metadata to
change the subscription of the new consumer and trigger a rebalance.
The final note on the JIRA stating that a later created topic that matches
a consumer's subscription pattern would not be assigned to the consumer upon
creation seems to be as designed. A repeat
`subscribe()` to the same pattern or some wait time until the next
automatic metadata refresh would handle that case.
An integration test was also added to verify these issues are fixed with
this PR.

KAFKA-3854: Fix issues with new consumer's subsequent regex (pattern)
subscriptions
This patch fixes two issues:
1. Subsequent regex subscriptions fail with the new consumer.
2. Subsequent regex subscriptions would not actually refresh metadata and
change the subscription of the new consumer nor they would trigger a rebalance.
The final note on the JIRA stating that a later created topic that matches
a consumer's subscription pattern would not be assigned to the consumer upon
creation seems to be as designed. A repeat subscribe() to the same pattern
would be needed to handle that case.
Unit tests for regex subscriptions will be handled in KAFKA-3897.
