> As mentioned in https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Xp-YBf87vLTduYSivgqWVEMjYUmkA-hyb4muX3KRl08/edit# we should add support for an allowed lateness setting.
> This includes several things:
>  - API for setting allowed lateness
>  - Dropping of late elements 
>  - Garbage collection of windows state/timers
> Depending on whether the {{WindowAssigner}} assigns windows based on event time or processing time we have to adjust the GC behavior. For event-time windows "allowed lateness" makes sense and we should garbage collect after this expires. For processing-time windows "allowed lateness" does not make sense and we should always GC window state/timers at the end timestamp of a processing-time window. I think that we need a method for this on {{WindowAssigner}} that allows to differentiate between event-time windows and processing-time windows: {{boolean WindowAssigner.isEventTime()}}.
