[jira] [Updated] (FLINK-3866) StringArraySerializer claims type is immutable; shouldn't

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3866?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Tatu Saloranta updated FLINK-3866:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Looking at default `TypeSerializer` instances I noticed what looks like a minor flaw, unless I am missing something.
Whereas all other array serializers indicate that type is not immutable (since in Java, arrays are not immutable), `StringArraySerializer` has:

```
	@Override
	public boolean isImmutableType() {
		return true;
	}
```

and I think it should instead return `false`. I could create a PR, but seems like a small enough thing that issue report makes more sense.
I tried looking for deps to see if there's a test for this, but couldn't find one; otherwise could submit a test fix.
