Well that's a single StateBackend. In order to say that "Checkpoints support rescaling" this must apply to all StateBackends, which AFAIK is not the case.

Hi, all

 it said "Checkpoints have a few differences from savepoints, they do not support Flink 
specific features like rescaling."

However, if you just take a look at RocksDB-StateBackend's code, you could see 
clearly that RocksDBStateBackend support rescaling from previous checkpoint. 
Could anyone give an explanation?
