Review comment:
       @ijuma We log one message per deleted segment. This could cause 
temporary increase in log volume when DeleteRecords is used or when retention 
is lowered, for example.
   
   Overall, we have a few options with different tradeoffs:
   
   1. Log a common reason per batch being deleted, including base offsets of 
segments being deleted. eg.
   ```
   Deleting segments due to retention time 999ms breach. BaseOffsets: (0,5,...).
   ```
   
   2. Log a common reason per batch being deleted, including base offsets and 
metadata of segments. eg. 
   ```
   Deleting segments due to retention time 999ms breach: 
LogSegment(baseOffset=0, size=360, lastModifiedTime=1596387738000, 
largestRecordTimestamp=Some(1596387737414)),LogSegment(baseOffset=5, size=360, 
lastModifiedTime=1596387738000, largestRecordTimestamp=Some(1596387737414)),...
   ```
   
   3. Log one message per segment being deleted. This is the current behavior. 
eg.
   ```
   Segment with base offset 0 will be deleted due to retention time 999ms 
breach based on the largest record timestamp from the segment, which is ...
   Segment with base offset 5 will be deleted due to retention time 999ms 
breach based on the largest record timestamp from the segment, which is ...
   ...
   ```
   
   Doing (2) may be a reasonable tradeoff. It eliminates some of the redundancy 
at the cost of making it to glean per segment metadata. Let me know what you 
think.
