[FLINK-8667] expose key in KeyedBroadcastProcessFunction#onTimer() ## What is the purpose of the change Expose key in `KeyedBroadcastProcessFunction#onTimer(OnTimerContext<Key>)`. Hopefully this PR can make it into 1.5.0, in which release`KeyedBroadcastProcessFunction` will be out. Otherwise, we need to think about compatibility and it will be much harder to expose key in `KeyedBroadcastProcessFunction#onTimer()`. ## Brief change log Expose key in `KeyedBroadcastProcessFunction#onTimer(OnTimerContext<Key>)` ## Verifying this change This change is already covered by existing tests, such as *BroadcastStateITCase*. ## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts: - The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with `@Public(Evolving)`: (yes) ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature?
