   <!--
   *Thank you very much for contributing to Apache Flink - we are happy that 
you want to help us improve Flink. To help the community review your 
contribution in the best possible way, please go through the checklist below, 
which will get the contribution into a shape in which it can be best reviewed.*
   
   *Please understand that we do not do this to make contributions to Flink a 
hassle. In order to uphold a high standard of quality for code contributions, 
while at the same time managing a large number of contributions, we need 
contributors to prepare the contributions well, and give reviewers enough 
contextual information for the review. Please also understand that 
contributions that do not follow this guide will take longer to review and thus 
typically be picked up with lower priority by the community.*
   
   ## Contribution Checklist
   
     - Make sure that the pull request corresponds to a [JIRA 
issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/FLINK/issues). Exceptions are 
made for typos in JavaDoc or documentation files, which need no JIRA issue.
     
     - Name the pull request in the form "[FLINK-XXXX] [component] Title of the 
pull request", where *FLINK-XXXX* should be replaced by the actual issue 
number. Skip *component* if you are unsure about which is the best component.
     Typo fixes that have no associated JIRA issue should be named following 
this pattern: `[hotfix] [docs] Fix typo in event time introduction` or 
`[hotfix] [javadocs] Expand JavaDoc for PuncuatedWatermarkGenerator`.
   
     - Fill out the template below to describe the changes contributed by the 
pull request. That will give reviewers the context they need to do the review.
     
     - Make sure that the change passes the automated tests, i.e., `mvn clean 
verify` passes. You can set up Azure Pipelines CI to do that following [this 
guide](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/Azure+Pipelines#AzurePipelines-Tutorial:SettingupAzurePipelinesforaforkoftheFlinkrepository).
   
     - Each pull request should address only one issue, not mix up code from 
multiple issues.
     
     - Each commit in the pull request has a meaningful commit message 
(including the JIRA id)
   
     - Once all items of the checklist are addressed, remove the above text and 
this checklist, leaving only the filled out template below.

   ## What is the purpose of the change
   
   When a sink contains a shuffle between writer and committer, a committer may 
receive committables coming from multiple subtasks. So far, we immediately 
merged then on receival. However, that makes it later impossible to trace 
whether we received all messages from an upstream task.
   
   It also made rescaling of the committer awkward: during normal processing 
all committables of a committer have the same subtaskId as the committer. On 
downscale, these subtaskIds suddenly don't match and need to be replaced, which 
we solved by merging the SubtaskCommittableManagers.
   
   This commit decouples the collection of committables from changing the 
subtaskId for emission. Committables retain the upstream subtask id in the 
CommittableCollection, which survives serialization and deserialization. Only 
upon emission, we substitute the subtask id with the one of the emitting 
committer.
   
   This is, in particular, useful for a global committer, where all subtasks 
are collected. As a side fix, the new serialization also contains the 
numberOfSubtasks such that different checkpoints may have different degree of 
parallelism.
   
   The old approach probably has edge cases where scaling a UC would result in 
stalled pipelines because certain metadata doesn't match. This would not affect 
pipelines which  chain Writer/Committer (no channel state), Writer and 
Committer have same DOP (results in a Forward channel, which doesn't use UC for 
exactly these reasons), and a non-keyed shuffles (because they don't provide 
any guarantees). Since a keyed shuffle must use the subtask id of the 
committables, the new approach should be safe. However, since we disabled UC 
entirely for sinks to adhere to the contract of notifyCheckpointComplete, this 
shouldn't matter going forward. It's still important to consider these cases 
though for restoring from Flink 1 checkpoints.
