Hey Stanislav,

Thanks for the KIP. I think the goal is to allow users to seek past a
records which cannot be parsed for whatever reason. However, it's a little
annoying that you need to catch two separate types to handle this. I'm
wondering if it makes sense to expose an interface like
`UnconsumableRecordException` or something like that. The consumer could
then have separate internal exception types which extend from
InvalidRecordException and SerializationException respectively and
implement `UnconsumableRecordException`. That would simplify the handling
and users could check the cause if they cared which case it was.

Another question for consideration. I'd imagine some users would find it
helpful to seek past failed messages automatically. If there is a corrupt
record, for example, there's almost nothing you can do except seek past it
anyway. I'm wondering if there should be a config for this or if users
should be able to install a callback of some sorts to handle failed
records. Not sure if this is that big of a problem for users, but
interested to hear others thoughts.

Thanks,
Jason
