https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/5356
I wonder why we need to introduce a separate method for an iterator instead
of just changing the `get()` method to return `Collections.emptyList()` as
iterable in case of null value. Wouldn't that be more straight forward?
> Add iterator() to ListState which returns empty iterator when it has no value
