Some thoughts on signature of `subtaskReady`:
1. `void subtaskReady(int subtask, SubtaskGateway gateway)`
2. `void subtaskReady(int subtask, SubtaskGateway gateway, OperatorEvent
readyEvent)`
signature#1 is more to say it is ready to send event from task state while
signature#2 is more to say running operator instance is ready to receive and
process event.
Theoretically with signature#1, subtask could ready before any
methods(except constructor) of `AbstractInvokable` were invoked(eg.
`StreamOperator`s were not open to function). This means that in most
cases(possible all `StreamOperator` cases), coordinator will still need a ready
event to sending events. This is why I am a bit prefer signature#2. But given
that `dispatchOperatorEvent` is bound to `AbstractInvokable` which could be
capable to function after constructed. For example,
`CoordinatorEventsExactlyOnceITCase.EventCollectingTask` is capable to process
event after constructed. I think it might also be reason to go with
signature#1.
