KAFKA-4234: Temporarily disable committing offsets in consumer's `unsubscribe()` Temporarily disable the offset commit (when auto commit is enabled) in the new consumer's `unsubscribe()` method towards a workaround for the issue reported in [KAFKA-3491](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3491). For now, a call to `unsubscribe()` can be made to reset the offsets in case processing the batch received from the most recent `poll()` is interrupted (due to some exception).
