    [FLINK-9367] [Streaming Connectors] Allow to do truncate() in calss 
BucketingSink when hadoop version is lower than 2.7

    ## What is the purpose of the change
    
    In the current implementation of class BucketingSink, we cannot use 
truncate() function if the hadoop version is lower than 2.7. Instead, it use a 
valid-length file to mark how much data is valid.
    However, users which reads data from HDFS may not or should not know how 
deal with this valid-length file. 
    Hence, we need a configuration to decide whether use the valid-length file. 
If not, we should rewrite the valid file.
    
    ## Brief change log
    
    Add a function `enableForceTruncateInProgressFile()` for BucketingSink to 
decide whether use the valid-length file. If it's true, the valid-length file 
wouldn't be produced. Instead, the valid in-progress file will be rewritten. 
    
    ## Verifying this change
    
    This change is a trivial work without any test coverage.
