Kafka partition key clarification
See original GitHub issueIn Kafka binding specification, it’s specified that the message key should be included in the event as key extension. But then, the specification links to the partitioning extension specification, which states that the key extension should be called partitionKey.

@clemensv took an AI to write-up a proposal
The key in a kafka message is well defined by the kafka message specification already: I don’t see the reason to add the partitioning extension, nor the
partitionKeyExtractorthing which is just confusing. I think we should reword, removing both the partitioning spec link and thepartitionKeyExtractor, and just state that the Kafka message key maps to thekeyextension of the event.
