Description

Currently the package name of flink APIs should cantians the language name, such as:

• flink-java -> org.apache.flink.api.java
• flink-scala -> org.apache.flink.api.scala

So I think we should follow the pattern of API package name and correct the current python API package name for `flink-python`. But for long-term goal, the flink API package name should be:

• org.apache.flink.api.common.
• org.apache.flink.api.common.python.
• org.apache.flink.api.datastream.
• org.apache.flink.api.datastream.scala.
• org.apache.flink.api.datastream.python.
• org.apache.flink.api.table.
• org.apache.flink.api.table.scala.
• org.apache.flink.api.table.python.

So, in this JIRA, we should correct the package name from `org.apache.flink.python` -------> `org.apache.flink.api.table.python`

What do you think?
