maxBytesPerPartition not working as stated in the documentation

[abhinavgautam07]

Describe the bug
I have set the value of maxBytesPerPartition to 1 and when i produce a message as big as 126KB, the message still get consumed, wherein the documentation it is stated that

The maximum amount of data per-partition the server will return. This size must be at least as large as the maximum message size the server allows or else it is possible for the producer to send messages larger than the consumer can fetch. If that happens, the consumer can get stuck trying to fetch a large message on a certain partition

which means the consumer should be stuck and the message should not be consumed.

To Reproduce
you can try setting this value to 1 and produce a very big message.

Expected behavior
the consumer should be stuck and no message should be consumed.

Observed behavior
the message still get consumed.

Environment:
