close() is called by all operators when the operator finishes without an
exception of canceling. Have a look at the AbstractUDFStream
Stop() is thought to be merely a trigger to make an unbounded source stop
its unbounded loop. After that, it should finish like a bounded source,
including the close() call.

> Nifi source is not stoppable right now. To make it stoppable, is must
> implement {{StoppableFunction}}. Implementing method {{stop()}} must ensure,
> that the source stops receiving new messages from Nifi and issues a final
> checkpoint. Afterwards, {{run()}} must return.
> When implementing this, keep in mind, that the gathered checkpoint might
> later be used as a savepoint.
