Description

FLINK-27518 introduced a breaking signature change to the abstract class TypeSerializerUpgradeTestBase, specifically the abstract createTestSpecifications method signature was changed. This breaks downstream test code in externalized connector repos, e.g. flink-connector-kafka's KafkaSerializerUpgradeTest

Moreover, fink-migration-test-utils needs to be transitively pulled in by downstream test code that depends on flink-core test-jar.
