AlterConfigs

This page encodes the smallest legal instance of the request and the response: numeric fields are zero, strings and byte arrays are empty, every array carries exactly one sample element, and any records field holds one empty 61-byte RecordBatch v2. Version 2 is a flexible version, so every struct is terminated by a uvarint tagged-field count and strings and arrays carry compact length-plus-one prefixes. Sizes below include the leading int32 size prefix.
