We propose a new KafkaConfig

• socket.listen.backlog.size
  • This may be an integer config and passed as the parameter for ServerSocket#bind()
    • https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/2.8.0/core/src/main/scala/kafka/network/SocketServer.scala#L663

...

• Add new integer integer config socket.listen.backlog.backlog size with default value 50

SocketServer

• Pass socket.listen.backlog backlog.size to ServerSocket#bind() when creating Acceptor
