Yes, according to all of the tests it those.
(b) version works by passing instance of `FlinkKafkaProducer011` as
a`SinkFunction` in the `KafkaStreamSink<IN> extends StreamSink<IN>` class.
Under the hood this `StreamSink` makes some checking if `SinkFunction` actually
implements various versions of checkpointing interfaces and in that way it
calls the appropriate methods on `FlinkKafkaProducer011`.
