    Description

      Feedback from people who tried the AdminClient is that auto topic creation during describe is very confusing. We expected that, but we also thought that there wasn't much that could be done.

      However, there's a simple solution (suggested by hachikuji): make it possible to disallow auto topic creation when sending the metadata request. We can keep the existing behaviour for the producer and consumer (until we move to client-side auto topic creation) while doing the right thing for AdminClient (which is new).
