Review comment:
       You are introducing this interface only for the sake of creating test 
implementation, and then commenting that it shouldn't be extended. Do we really 
need to do that? Can not we have just a final class tracking last emitted 
timestamp and watermark?
   
   I can see a second reason, a bit cleaner code. With this interface you don't 
need to pass whole `InternalSourceReaderMetricGroup` to the outputs. 
   
   However... both of those issues seems to me a problem of using inheritance 
instead of composition in the `InternalSourceReaderMetricGroup implements 
SourceListener`.
   
   Wouldn't it solve both of those problems if you introduced `public final 
class SourceListener` and inject it as a parameter to 
`InternalSourceReaderMetricGroup` and both `SourceOutputWithWatermarks` and 
`TimestampsOnlyOutput`? This would also render `NoopSourceListener` 
unnecessary, as instantiating production class would be just as easy. `public 
final class` wouldn't optimise anything BUT it would provide a compile error 
and force someone to look at the code and maybe notice this javadoc if someone 
would violate this . And we would be sure that there is no problem with 
`NoopSourceListener` leaking to to class loader (for example in benchmarks 
which are including test dependencies).
