 Review comment:
   I agree that `ProcessBundleDescriptors` is the better place. No need to 
modify the executable stage up front.

> The Flink runner requires the internal key to be encoded without a length 
> prefix (OUTER context). The user state request handler exposes a serialized 
> version of the key to the Runner. This key is encoded with the NESTED context 
> which may add a length prefix. We need to convert it to OUTER context to 
> match the Flink runner's key encoding.
> So far this has not caused the Flink Runner to behave incorrectly. However, 
> with the upcoming support for Flink 1.9, the state backend will not accept 
> requests for keys not part of any key group/partition of the operator. This 
> is very likely to happen with the encoding not being consistent.
> **NOTE** This is only applicable to the Java SDK, as the Python SDK uses 
> OUTER encoding for the key in state requests.
