> Currently, streaming jobs can only be stopped using "cancel" command, what is a "hard" stop with no clean shutdown.
> The new introduced "stop" signal, will only affect streaming source tasks such that the sources can stop emitting data and shutdown cleanly, resulting in a clean shutdown of the whole streaming job.
> This feature is a pre-requirment for https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1929
