// The Writer type provides the implementation of a producer of kafka messages
// that automatically distributes messages across partitions of a single topic
// using a configurable balancing policy.
//
// Writes manage the dispatch of messages across partitions of the topic they
// are configured to write to using a Balancer, and aggregate batches to
// optimize the writes to kafka.
//
// Writers may be configured to be used synchronously or asynchronously. When
// use synchronously, calls to WriteMessages block until the messages have been
// written to kafka. In this mode, the program should inspect the error returned
// by the function and test if it an instance of kafka.WriteErrors in order to
// identify which messages have succeeded or failed, for example:
//
//	// Construct a synchronous writer (the default mode).
//	w := &kafka.Writer{
//		Addr:         kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
//		Topic:        "topic-A",
//		RequiredAcks: kafka.RequireAll,
//	}
//
//	...
//
//  // Passing a context can prevent the operation from blocking indefinitely.
//	switch err := w.WriteMessages(ctx, msgs...).(type) {
//	case nil:
//	case kafka.WriteErrors:
//		for i := range msgs {
//			if err[i] != nil {
//				// handle the error writing msgs[i]
//				...
//			}
//		}
//	default:
//		// handle other errors
//		...
//	}
//
// In asynchronous mode, the program may configure a completion handler on the
// writer to receive notifications of messages being written to kafka:
//
//	w := &kafka.Writer{
//		Addr:         kafka.TCP("localhost:9092"),
//		Topic:        "topic-A",
//		RequiredAcks: kafka.RequireAll,
//		Async:        true, // make the writer asynchronous
//		Completion: func(messages []kafka.Message, err error) {
//			...
//		},
//	}
//
//	...
//
//	// Because the writer is asynchronous, there is no need for the context to
//	// be cancelled, the call will never block.
//	if err := w.WriteMessages(context.Background(), msgs...); err != nil {
//		// Only validation errors would be reported in this case.
