Research direction

Start by locating and reading KafkaSource and KafkaCustomConsumerFactory, then compare how each configures consumers and identify the duplicated behavior. Refactor the shared configuration so KafkaSource uses KafkaCustomConsumerFactory, preserving the existing subtle differences and consumer behavior. Done means the duplication is removed without changing the source's expected behavior.
