What is the purpose of the change
This pull request replaces the reference of StreamNode object with ID in StreamEdge to reduce the sizes of JobGraph and TDD. Those referenced objects including sourceVertex and targetVertex will be written transitively on serializing StreamEdge, but they are not needed in JM and Task. For a large size topology, this will causes JobGraph and TDD to become much larger than that actually need, and more likely to occur rpc timeout when transmitted.
