Change Kafka Lookup Extractor to not register consumer group (#12842)
* change kafka lookups module to not commit offsets

The current behaviour of the Kafka lookup extractor is to not commit
offsets by assigning a unique ID to the consumer group and setting
auto.offset.reset to earliest. This does the job but also pollutes the
Kafka broker with a bunch of "ghost" consumer groups that will never again be
used.

To fix this, we now set enable.auto.commit to false, which prevents the
ghost consumer groups being created in the first place.

* update docs to include new enable.auto.commit setting behaviour

* update kafka-lookup-extractor documentation

Provide some additional detail on functionality and configuration.
Hopefully this will make it clearer how the extractor works for
developers who aren't so familiar with Kafka.

* add comments better explaining the logic of the code

* add spelling exceptions for kafka lookup docs
