SaslHandshake

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 1 predates flexible versions, so lengths are fixed-width int16 and int32 prefixes and there are no tagged-field trailers. Sizes below include the leading int32 size prefix.
