Review comment:
       This was needed because for stateful DoFn, the direct runner replaces it 
with `GbkThenStatefulParDo` which applies a windowing without an explicit 
window fn:
   
https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/2db98ee64a36a2e15b7a8873fbbecb8a4e3e36d9/runners/direct-java/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/runners/direct/ParDoMultiOverrideFactory.java#L202
   
   which triggers a `Flatten` of the input although in this case there is only 
one input pcollection:
   
https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/2db98ee64a36a2e15b7a8873fbbecb8a4e3e36d9/sdks/java/core/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/sdk/transforms/windowing/Window.java#L407
   
   `Flatten` requires the windowing of the input(s) to be compatible including 
with itself:
   
https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/2db98ee64a36a2e15b7a8873fbbecb8a4e3e36d9/sdks/java/core/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/sdk/transforms/Flatten.java#L104
   
   So two options AFAIT:
   - Allowing `IdentityWindowFn` to be compatible with itself (which makes 
sense I guess?)
   - Skipping windowing fn comparison for the same input PCollection in 
`Flatten`
