Enhance SnapshotDeletionPolicy to allow taking multiple snapshots
-----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-2481
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2481
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Index
            Reporter: Shai Erera
            Assignee: Shai Erera
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.1, 4.0


A spin off from here: 
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-dev/99161?do=post_view_threaded#99161

I will:
# Replace snapshot() with snapshot(String), so that one can name/identify the 
snapshot
# Add some supporting methods, like release(String), getSnapshots() etc.
# Some unit tests of course.

This is mostly written already - I want to contribute it. I've also written a 
PersistentSDP, which persists the snapshots on stable storage (a Lucene index 
in this case) to support opening an IW with existing snapshots already, so they 
don't get deleted. If it's interesting, I can contribute it as well.

Porting my patch to the new API. Should post it soon.
