My guess is it doesn't.

My guess, too, would be that it does not address this situation. Some of the burden would be on application developers to try to keep their data formats stable. With suitable namespaces it would be possible to have configuration of the various versions stored separately, but I do not actually know if flatpak has implemented any handling for this case.
