title: Kafka python AvroConsumer seek method
body: <p>I am having issues consuming from a given offset using python, in Java I had implemented a KafkaConsumer and used </p>
  
  <p><code>consumer.seek(new TopicPartition(topic, 0), 3)</code> </p>
  
  <p>to consume from my third offset in partition 0. </p>
  
  <p>But when using Python I am using an AvroConsumer, which has a seek method but only takes the partition as a parameter and not an offset to consume from. it seems to consume then from the beginning of the topic. Is there a way with AvroConsumer to consume from a certain offset?
  Thanks </p>
