> RocksDB provides backward compatibility but it doesn't always provide forward 
> compatibility. It's better to store the RocksDB format version in the 
> checkpoint so that it would give us more information to provide the rollback 
> guarantee when we upgrade the RocksDB version that may introduce incompatible 
> change in a new Spark version.
> A typical case is when a user upgrades their query to a new Spark version, 
> and this new Spark version has a new RocksDB version which may use a new 
> format. But the user hits some bug and decide to rollback. But in the old 
> Spark version, the old RocksDB version cannot read the new format.
> In order to handle this case, we will write the RocksDB format version to the 
> checkpoint. When restarting from a checkpoint, we will force RocksDB to use 
> the format version stored in the checkpoint. This will ensure the user can 
> rollback their Spark version if needed.
