 Review comment:
   With the name NewDoFnKv, it sounds like it's already assuming that a DoFn KV 
is being passed in. It's OK for there to be special purpose methods that only 
do one thing.
   
   Another option to consider instead of having two (or N) methods, consider 
extending the current NewDoFn with a variadic an Option type.  (eg. opts 
...Option), this lets existing callers keep things the same, but allow for 
expanding things in the future. Option should probably be either a function 
type, or an interface type with private methods, and the options are provided 
by other methods in the package. eg. graph.NewDoFn(fn, graph.HasKVInput(), 
graph.HasRestriction()). This is valuable if we think being able to expand 
things in the future, but also lets us mix and match more easily later on. This 
way we can keep the existing behavior when there are no options, but keep the 
documentation of all the various uses in one place on the NewDoFn method 
referring to the option returning methods.
