The intention of my comment about `RuntimeException` was not about changing
the method signatures for throwing RocksDBExcepion. My suggestion was to only
use a proper subclass of `RuntimeException`. We should avoid using
`RuntimeException` directly, similar to how we should avoid throwing the class
`Exception` directly. I know that there is some code in Flink that does not
follow this, but I think it is better code style to stick with more appropriate
subclasses.
