> On the normal recovery path, when a rescale fans several old input channels 
> into one new channel, DemultiplexingRecordDeserializer.getNextRecord [1] 
> aggregates the recovered non-record elements across the merged old channels: 
> it emits the min watermark (suppressing it until every merged channel has 
> one) and ACTIVE if any channel is active. This reproduces the pre-rescale 
> min(wmA, wmB, ...) semantics so the operator watermark is never advanced past 
> what any old channel justifies.
> With checkpointing during recovery (CDR, 
> execution.checkpointing.during-recovery.enabled) enabled, this aggregation 
> moves to the unspilling thread, but 
> ChannelStateFilteringHandler.filterAndRewrite [2] only filters records and 
> passes watermarks and statuses through verbatim. So on a fan-in rescale a 
> high watermark from one merged channel advances the operator watermark 
> prematurely and legitimately in-flight lower-timestamp records get dropped as 
> late (silent data loss), and an IDLE from one merged channel wrongly marks 
> the whole channel idle (broken alignment, no data loss).
> Trigger: CDR enabled + unaligned-checkpoint restore with in-flight state + a 
> fan-in rescale (scale-down / ambiguous keyed exchange); the data-loss symptom 
> additionally needs event-time watermarks and a late-dropping operator. 
> Without CDR the same rescale is correct.
> Fix: do the same min-watermark / any-active aggregation in the unspilling 
> thread, where the per-old-channel VirtualChannels already hold lastWatermark 
> / watermarkStatus, instead of passing them through verbatim (NO_RESCALE needs 
> no change). Since segments are written per new channel in arrival order, a 
> watermark must be held until all old channels folding into that new channel 
> are drained.
