[FLINK-9323][build] Properly organize checkstyle-plugin configuration
## What is the purpose of the change
This PR reorganizes the checkstyle-plugin configuration to not be
duplicated in 4 modules. Instead the configuration was moved into the root
pluginManagement section. The child poms were adjusted to only override
settings if required.
## Brief change log
* move checkstyle configuration into root pluginManagement section
* reduce child pom configuration to essential entry
## Verifying this change
* run `mvn help:effective-pom` to verify that the effective poms have not
changed, and that the suppression file is properly overridden
