> Make DoFn invocation logic of Python SDK more extensible
> --------------------------------------------------------

> Project: Beam

> DoFn invocation logic of Python SDK is currently in DoFnRunner class.
> https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/sdks/python/apache_beam/runners/common.py#L54
> At initialization of this, we parse a DoFn and create local state. We use
> this state when invoking DoFn methods process, start_bundle, and
> finish_bundle. For example, we store a list of ArgPlaceholder objects within
> the state of DoFnRunner to facilitate invocation of process method.
> We will need to extend this functionality when adding new features to DoFn
> class (for example to support Splittable DoFn [1]). So I think it's good to
> refactor this code to be more extensible.
> I think a good approach for this is to add DoFnInvoker and DoFnSignature
> classes similar to Java SDK [2].
> In this approach:
> A DoFnSignature captures the signature of a DoFn including methods and
> arguments.
> A DoFnInvoker implements a particular way DoFn methods will be executed
> (initially we'll have simple and per-window invokers [3]).
> A runner uses DoFnRunner to execute methods of a given DoFn. At
> initialization, DoFnRunner crates a DoFnSignature and a DoFnInvoker for the
> given DoFn.
> DoFnSignature and DoFnInvoker methods will be used by SplittableDoFn
> implementation as well.
