Research direction

Read gravitino-spark-lineage.md first for the existing lineage documentation structure, then review lineage.md to see where the new page should be referenced. Add gravitino-flink-lineage.md covering capabilities, configuration, the connector support matrix, and usage examples; update lineage.md so users can find it.

Description

feature
Describe the feature

Gravitino has started preparing support for Flink lineage, add user-facing documentation for Gravitino Flink lineage support. The OpenLineage Flink plugin enables table-level lineage collection for Flink SQL and DataStream API jobs, transforming dataset identifiers to Gravitino format (namespace=metalake, name=catalog.db.table).

Motivation

Gravitino already has Spark lineage documentation (gravitino-spark-lineage.md), but lacks equivalent documentation for Flink lineage. Users need a reference guide for configuring and using the Flink lineage plugin.

Describe the solution

Add gravitino-flink-lineage.md covering capabilities, configuration, connector support matrix, and usage examples.Update lineage.md to reference the new Flink lineage page.
