///
/// @brief RAII class that used as interface for Apache Kafka Consumer interaction
/// and proper lifetime management.
///
/// Its main purpose is to stop the message polling in user
/// component (that holds ConsumerScope) destructor, because ConsumerScope::Callback
/// often captures `this` pointer on user component.
///
/// Common usage:
///
/// @snippet samples/kafka_service/src/consumer_handler.cpp  Kafka service sample - consumer usage
///
/// ## Important implementation details
///
/// ConsumerScope holds reference to kafka::impl::Consumer that actually
/// represents the Apache Kafka Balanced Consumer.
///
/// It exposes the API for asynchronous message batches processing that is
/// polled from the subscribed topics partitions.
///
/// Consumer periodically polls the message batches from the
/// subscribed topics partitions and invokes processing callback on each batch.
///
/// Also, Consumer maintains per topic statistics including the broker
/// connection errors.
///
/// @note Each ConsumerScope instance is not thread-safe. To speed up the topic
/// messages processing, create more consumers with the same `group_id`.
///
/// @see https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/clients/consumer.html for
/// basic consumer concepts
/// @see
/// https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/clients/librdkafka/html/md_INTRODUCTION.html#autotoc_md62
/// for understanding of balanced consumer groups
///
/// @warning ConsumerScope::Start and ConsumerScope::Stop maybe called multiple
/// times, but only in "start-stop" order and **NOT** concurrently.
///
/// @note Must be placed as one of the last fields in the consumer component.
/// Make sure to add a comment before the field:
///
/// @code
/// // Subscription must be the last field! Add new fields above this comment.
