> Issue Type: Sub-task

> If you are doing a new major release, you need to update Flink version in the
> following repositories and the [AzureCI project
> configuration|https://dev.azure.com/apache-flink/apache-flink/]:
> * [apache/flink|https://github.com/apache/flink]
> * [apache/flink-docker|https://github.com/apache/flink-docker]
> * [apache/flink-benchmarks|https://github.com/apache/flink-benchmarks]
> Patch releases don't require the these repositories to be touched. Simply
> checkout the already existing branch for that version:
> {code:java}
> $ git checkout release-$SHORT_RELEASE_VERSION
> {code}
> h4. Flink repository
> Create a branch for the new version that we want to release before updating
> the master branch to the next development version:
> {code:bash}
> $ cd ./tools
> tools $ releasing/create_snapshot_branch.sh
> tools $ git checkout master
> tools $ OLD_VERSION=$CURRENT_SNAPSHOT_VERSION
> NEW_VERSION=$NEXT_SNAPSHOT_VERSION releasing/update_branch_version.sh
> {code}
> In the {{master}} branch, add a new value (e.g. {{{}v1_16("1.16"){}}}) to
> [apache-flink:flink-annotations/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/FlinkVersion|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-annotations/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/FlinkVersion.java]
> as the last entry:
> {code:java}
> // ...
> v1_12("1.12"),
> v1_13("1.13"),
> v1_14("1.14"),
> v1_15("1.15"),
> v1_16("1.16");
> {code}
> Additionally in master, update the branch list of the GitHub Actions nightly
> workflow (see
> [apache/flink:.github/workflows/nightly-trigger.yml#L31ff|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/.github/workflows/nightly-trigger.yml#L31]):
> The two most-recent releases and master should be covered.
> The newly created branch and updated {{master}} branch need to be pushed to
> the official repository.
> h4. Flink Docker Repository
> Afterwards fork off from {{dev-master}} a {{dev-x.y}} branch in the
> [apache/flink-docker|https://github.com/apache/flink-docker] repository. Make
> sure that
> [apache/flink-docker:.github/workflows/ci.yml|https://github.com/apache/flink-docker/blob/dev-master/.github/workflows/ci.yml]
> points to the correct snapshot version; for {{dev-x.y}} it should point to
> {{{}x.y-SNAPSHOT{}}}, while for {{dev-master}} it should point to the most
> recent snapshot version (\{[$NEXT_SNAPSHOT_VERSION}}).
> After pushing the new minor release branch, as the last step you should also
> update the documentation workflow to also build the documentation for the new
> release branch. Check [Managing
> Documentation|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/Managing+Documentation]
> on details on how to do that. You may also want to manually trigger a build
> to make the changes visible as soon as possible.
> h4. Flink Benchmark Repository
> First of all, checkout the {{master}} branch to {{dev-x.y}} branch in
> [apache/flink-benchmarks|https://github.com/apache/flink-benchmarks], so that
> we can have a branch named {{dev-x.y}} which could be built on top of
> (${{{}CURRENT_SNAPSHOT_VERSION{}}}).
> Then, inside the repository you need to manually update the {{flink.version}}
> property inside the parent *pom.xml* file. It should be pointing to the most
> recent snapshot version ($NEXT_SNAPSHOT_VERSION). For example:
> {code:xml}
> <flink.version>1.18-SNAPSHOT</flink.version>
> {code}
> h4. AzureCI Project Configuration
> The new release branch needs to be configured within AzureCI to make azure
> aware of the new release branch. This matter can only be handled by Ververica
> employees since they are owning the AzureCI setup.
>
> ----
> h3. Expectations (Minor Version only if not stated otherwise)
> * Release branch has been created and pushed
> * Changes on the new release branch are picked up by [Azure
> CI|https://dev.azure.com/apache-flink/apache-flink/_build?definitionId=1&_a=summary]
> * {{master}} branch has the version information updated to the new version
> (check pom.xml files and
> *
> [apache-flink:flink-annotations/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/FlinkVersion|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-annotations/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/FlinkVersion.java]
> enum)
> *
> [apache/flink:.github/workflows/nightly-trigger.yml#L31ff|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/.github/workflows/nightly-trigger.yml#L31]
> should have the new release branch included
> * New version is added to the
> [apache-flink:flink-annotations/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/FlinkVersion|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-annotations/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/FlinkVersion.java]
> enum.
> * Make sure [flink-docker|https://github.com/apache/flink-docker/] has
> {{dev-x.y}} branch and docker e2e tests run against this branch in the
> corresponding Apache Flink release branch (see
> [apache/flink:flink-end-to-end-tests/test-scripts/common_docker.sh:51|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/flink-end-to-end-tests/test-scripts/common_docker.sh#L51])
> *
> [apache-flink:docs/config.toml|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/release-1.17/docs/config.toml]
> has been updated appropriately in the new Apache Flink release branch.
> * The {{flink.version}} property (see
> [apache/flink-benchmarks:pom.xml|https://github.com/apache/flink-benchmarks/blob/master/pom.xml#L48]
> of Flink Benchmark repo has been updated to the latest snapshot version.
