Description

`org.apache.kafka.common.requests.CreatePartitionsRequest` currently uses `org.apache.kafka.clients.admin.NewPartitions`. We shouldn't have references from `common` to `clients`. Since `org.apache.kafka.clients.admin` is a public package, we cannot use a common class for Admin API and requests. So we should do something similar to CreateTopicsRequest for which we have `org.apache.kafka.clients.admin.NewTopic` class used for the admin API and an equivalent `org.apache.kafka.common.requests.CreateTopicsRequest.TopicDetails` class that doesn't refer to `clients.admin`.
