[FLINK-2802] [streaming] Remove cyclic watermark dependencies for iterations This PR contains a simple change so that if timestamps are enabled, iteration sources automatically emit a `Long.MAX_VALUE` watermark. While this will not help making event/processing time windows consistent across cycles (which is inherently problematic due to the cyclic time dependency), at least these programs will not deadlock. I still need to add a test to validate the behaviour.
