[FLINK-6018] Add tests for KryoSerializer restore with registered types (This PR is a re-opened version of #3562, including @aljoscha's initial work and my follow-up fixes. The below description is directly copied from #3562.) I changed `TypeSerializer.isCompatibleWith()` to `TypeSerializer.canRestoreFrom` because the relation is not necessarily symmetric. I added a `KryoSerializer.canRestoreFrom()` that only allows restoring when we previously didn't have registered types/serializers. I added a whole bunch of tests in `StateBackendTestBase`, this should be reviewed most thoroughly.
