A new paragraph should start with `<p>`. `<p/>` should never be used in
Javadoc, AFAIK.

>
> Currently the AbstractStreamOperatorTestHarness allows for testing an
> operator when scaling up, through snapshot and restore. This is not enough
> as many interesting corner cases arise when scaling down or during
> arbitrary combinations of scaling up and down.
> This issue targets to add this functionality so that an operator can snapshot
> its state, restore with different parallelism, and later scale down or
> further up.
