When fetching records headers are not available #698
Description
Currently Kafka REST Proxy does not return headers of the records. However, fetching headers would be useful.
E.g. Kafka Connect Dead Letter Queue records have some important data is stored in the header of the Kafka message, e.g.:
{
"headers" : {
"__connect.errors.partition" : "0",
"__connect.errors.stage" : "VALUE_CONVERTER",
"__connect.errors.task.id" : "0",

Are there any plans to support fetching headers? Is the issue related to sending headers as described in the issue #523 ?
