Description

Kafka Connect 3.5.0 added support for stopping tasks. Stopped task differs from a paused one, as it does not allocate any resources.
Add stop button, only for KC clusters >= 3.5.0.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the connector task controls and the existing task-state handling, then check how the UI identifies Kafka Connect cluster versions. Done means a stop button is available only for Kafka Connect clusters at least at version 3.5.0 and distinguishes stopped tasks from paused ones.
