But there is one thing that confuses me, I found that it looks like one `ColumnFamilyHandle` can correspond to multiple namespace serializer but I am not sure about this, so I introduced this additional parameter. Am I misunderstanding something? Can one `ColumnFamilyHandle` only correspond to one namespace serializer?
