Description
I've found that consumer groups consuming from empty topics (currently having 0 records) are not listed, while those are available if you check with kafka-consumer-groups --list. Is not a big deal but maybe people reporting missing groups suffer this issue.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the discrepancy with an empty Kafka topic and compare Burrow's group listing with kafka-consumer-groups --list. Trace the group-discovery entry point and verify that groups with zero records are included; done means Burrow lists the same available groups without affecting existing group reporting.
