Maybe we could rename this method to something `finalizeCheckpoint` or
`completeCheckpoint` if it's not public.
> Add version header to savepoints
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-4067
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4067
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.0.3
> Reporter: Ufuk Celebi
> Assignee: Ufuk Celebi
> Fix For: 1.1.0
>
>
> Adding a header with version information to savepoints ensures that we can
> migrate savepoints between Flink versions in the future (for example when
> changing internal serialization formats between versions).
> After talking with Till, we propose to add the following meta data:
> - Magic number (int): identify data as savepoint
> - Version (int): savepoint version (independent of Flink version)
> - Data Offset (int): specifies at which point the actual savepoint data
> starts. With this, we can allow future Flink versions to add fields to the
> header without breaking stuff, e.g. Flink 1.1 could read savepoints of Flink
> 2.0.
> For Flink 1.0 savepoint support, we have to try reading the savepoints
> without a header before failing if we don't find the magic number.
