For the long-running async admin operations such as
deleteTopic/Namespace/Tenant/*, as I mentioned, I think we better provide
the describe* APIs to enable the admins to check the status of the async
operation.

I believe we can first use this system topic from this pip to support case
4, "admin async operations."
Still, we probably need a separate pip to discuss
- the expected behavior/experience of async admin operations.
- if we want to provide describe* APIs for the async operations.
- target resources
- architecture/components how to support describe* APIs
