 Review comment:
   Concerning `transient`:
   
   I think generally speaking, the `ModifiableSavepointMetadata` should not 
need to be serializable at all, since its main concern is bookkeeping what 
existing / new operators there are to facilitate building the job graph, and 
therefore do not need to be part of the serialized job graph.
   
   I think the only reason it needs to be serializable at the moment is because 
some runtime classes, e.g. `MergeOperatorStates` reduce operator, holds a 
reference to it.
   It should be possible (as IMO also more reasonable) to reduce the 
dependencies on `SavepointMetadata` in these runtime classes, and only pass in 
the necessary information. This should allow us to not make `SavepointMetadata` 
a `Serializable`.
