Review Comment:
   Thanks for the question, @nzw921rx. I traced the callers: MultiTableSink 
itself implements SupportCoordinatedSchemaEvolutionSink 
(MultiTableSink.java:243-250), so a plain instanceof check would be true for 
every multi-table sink, including ones whose child sinks do not support 
coordination. The method lets the composite answer 'all children support it' 
(callers: FlinkSink.java:105 and SchemaEvolutionSinkFlow.java:42). I think it 
is needed; a short javadoc on the interface method explaining why instanceof 
alone is not enough would make that clear. @dybyte could you add that line?
