Improve code quality, documentation, and nullability annotations

This commit implements several code quality improvements across the codebase:

Bug Fixes:
- Fix incorrect header constant in KafkaHeaders.java: ORIGINAL_CONSUMER_GROUP
  was using "dlt-original-consumer-group" instead of "original-consumer-group"
  to align with other ORIGINAL_* constants

Nullability Annotations:
- Add @nonnull annotations to methods that never return null:
  - AbstractMessageListenerContainer.getBeanName()
  - SendResult.getProducerRecord() and getRecordMetadata()
  - KafkaResourceHolder.getProducer()
  - EndpointHandlerMethod.getMethod() and getMethodName()
  - EndpointHandlerMultiMethod.getMethods()
  - ContainerGroup.getName() and getListenerIds()

Error Handling:
- Resolve TODO comments in DefaultKafkaProducerFactory by adding proper error
  handling to metric registration methods (registerMetricForSubscription and
  unregisterMetricFromSubscription) with consistent logging and producerFailed
  tracking, matching the pattern used in other transaction methods

Documentation:
- Enhance retrytopic package-info.java with comprehensive overview of retry
  topic infrastructure, core concepts, key components, and usage patterns
- Add missing Javadoc to public methods:
  - FailedRecordProcessor.deliveryAttempt() and clearThreadState()
  - ConsumerRecordMetadata: all public methods (hasOffset, offset, hasTimestamp,
    timestamp, serializedKeySize, serializedValueSize, topic, partition,
    timestampType)

These improvements enhance type safety, API clarity, error handling consistency,
and developer experience when working with the Spring Kafka framework.

 /**
- * Package for retryable topic handling.
+ * <h2>Retry Topic Infrastructure</h2>
+ *
+ * <p>This package provides comprehensive support for implementing retry patterns with Kafka,
+ * featuring automatic retry topic management and dead-letter topic (DLT) handling.
+ *
+ * <h3>Core Concepts</h3>
+ *
+ * <p><b>Retry Topics:</b> When message processing fails, messages are automatically sent to
+ * retry topics with configurable back-off delays, allowing for progressive retry attempts
+ * without blocking the main consumer thread.
+ *
+ * <p><b>Dead-Letter Topics (DLT):</b> Messages that exhaust all retry attempts are routed to
+ * a dead-letter topic for manual inspection, reprocessing, or logging.
+ *
+ * <h3>Key Components</h3>
+ *
+ * <ul>
+ *   <li>{@link org.springframework.kafka.retrytopic.RetryTopicConfiguration RetryTopicConfiguration} -
+ *       Main configuration container for retry behavior</li>
+ *   <li>{@link org.springframework.kafka.retrytopic.RetryTopicConfigurationBuilder RetryTopicConfigurationBuilder} -
+ *       Fluent API for building retry configurations</li>
+ *   <li>{@link org.springframework.kafka.retrytopic.DestinationTopic DestinationTopic} -
+ *       Represents a single retry or DLT destination</li>
+ *   <li>{@link org.springframework.kafka.retrytopic.DestinationTopicResolver DestinationTopicResolver} -
+ *       Resolves which destination topic to use for failed messages</li>
+ *   <li>{@link org.springframework.kafka.retrytopic.DeadLetterPublishingRecovererFactory DeadLetterPublishingRecovererFactory} -
+ *       Creates recoverers that publish failed messages to appropriate destinations</li>
+ *   <li>{@link org.springframework.kafka.retrytopic.DltStrategy DltStrategy} -
+ *       Defines strategies for DLT handling (always send, only on certain exceptions, etc.)</li>
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * <h3>Typical Usage</h3>
+ *
+ * <p>Configure retry topics using the {@code @RetryableTopic} annotation on listener methods,
+ * or programmatically via {@link org.springframework.kafka.retrytopic.RetryTopicConfigurationBuilder}.
+ * The framework automatically creates the necessary retry topic infrastructure and routes
+ * failed messages through the configured retry chain.
+ *
+ * <h3>Back-off Configuration</h3>
+ *
+ * <p>The package supports various back-off strategies:
+ * <ul>
+ *   <li>Fixed delay between retries</li>
+ *   <li>Exponential back-off with configurable multiplier</li>
+ *   <li>Maximum retry attempts</li>
+ *   <li>Custom back-off policies</li>
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * @since 2.7
