Expose Kafka's connections.max.idle.ms as a per-topic connections_max_idle option on the Kafka source. This lets operators recycle idle connections before brokers that close them early. Signed-off-by: Nikhil Bagmar <nikhilbagmar73@gmail.com>

Description
Exposes Kafka's
connections.max.idle.msas a per-topicconnections_max_idleoption on the Kafka source, so operators can have the consumer recycle idle connections sooner than the client default (540000ms). Defaults to 540000ms, so existing pipelines are unchanged. Brings the source in line with the sink, which already exposes this option.Issues Resolved
