Using GetOffsetShell against non-existent topic creates the topic which cannot be deleted

[Luke Forehand]

Slight nitpick, but a typo in using GetOffsetShell command can cause a
topic to be created which cannot be deleted (because deletion is still in
progress)

./kafka-run-class.sh kafka.tools.GetOffsetShell --broker-list
kafka10:9092,kafka11:9092,kafka12:9092,kafka13:9092 --topic typo --time 1

./kafka-topics.sh --zookeeper stormqa1/kafka-prod --describe --topic typo
Topic:typo      PartitionCount:8        ReplicationFactor:1     Configs:
        Topic: typo     Partition: 0    Leader: 10      Replicas: 10    Isr: 10
