[Feature]: Add a --to parameter to consumer about trubka HOT 4 CLOSED

Thanks for opening the feature request @MahlerFive . This is a bit tricky as offsets are bound to the partitions and you don't really know when to stop the whole consuming process. Let's say partition 1 has an offset on 22-02-2020T16:00:00 but partition 2 does not have any message with that timestamp. When would you stop consuming? I will put more thoughts on this to see if I can find a solution because I agree with you that it could be a very useful feature to have.

I suppose you'd have to wait until there was at least one message with a greater timestamp in each partition to stop. If the timestamp is in the past, you could just stop at newest if you never see a message with a greater timestamp.

I suppose I've never really run into this problem with the other tool I use because I'm either investigating something that happened a while ago or the topic has fairly high throughput anyway. I checked how it was implemented in that tool and it just waits to see a message with greater timestamp.
