[FLINK-3084] FsStateBackend backs up very small state directly with the
metadata
For the File State Backend (`FsStateBackend`), this change avoids the very
small files (few bytes) frequently created for small states, like Kafka
Offsets, or individual counters.
State whose size is below a certain size (512 bytes) is stored in the state
handle directly, rather than in files.
