[azeventhubs] Breaking change required to accomodate offsets that are _truly_ strings
Event Hubs events have an 'Offset' property, which has been typed as a integer in our SDK, but is actually (on the wire) a string.
This is incorrect and based on upcoming features, we need to do a breaking change to the API surface, where Offset will be properly typed as a 'string' and match the underlying protocol.
This will involve changes in the following places:
- ReceivedEventData.Offset, int64 -> string
- Checkpoint.Offset *int64 -> *string
- PartitionProperties.LastEnqueuedOffset int64 -> string
- StartPosition.Offset *int64 -> *string
(there might be others, but these are definitely the most obvious ones)
Thank you for your feedback. Tagging and routing to the team member best able to assist.

What's driving this requirement, is it the ability to specify values that aren't numeric?
Yes. They’re going to start encoding more information in there.
