URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/27056

   The throughput estimates are improved by storing the estimates per partition 
(in StreamProgress) rather than per dofn instance. This required some 
refactoring of ThroughputEstimator/SizeEstimator. It now estimates throughput 
(per second) of the last ReadChangeStream request and stores it in 
StreamProgress (current SDF position).
   
   The motivation for changing the measurement is that the DoFn instance level 
ThroughputEstimator can lead to inaccuracy because partitions move around 
between DoFn instances constantly. This has caused us to see cases where we 
estimate a small backlog and prevent scaling down when there is no backlog. 
   
   We account for heartbeats in order to prevent dataflow from scaling down too 
much when there are little to no mutations, so that it can't hit a point where 
it can no longer keep up with heartbeats.
