> This issue adds two new Codec implementations:
> * TeeSinkCodec: there have been attempts in the past to implement parallel 
> writing to multiple indexes so that they are all synchronized. This was 
> however complicated due to the complexity of IndexWriter/SegmentMerger logic. 
> The solution presented here offers a similar functionality but working on a 
> different level - as the name suggests, the TeeSinkCodec duplicates term data 
> into multiple output Directories, and provides a multi-directory abstraction 
> to perform other operations that are not yet handled by the Codec API (e.g. 
> stored fields handling).
> * FilteringCodec is related in a remote way to the ideas of index pruning 
> presented in LUCENE-1812 and the concept of tiered search. Since we can use 
> TeeSinkCodec to write to multiple output Directories in a synchronized way, 
> we could also filter out or modify some of the data that is being written. 
> The FilteringCodec provides this functionality, so that you can use like this:
> {code}
> IndexWriter --> TeeSinkCodec
>                  |  |
>                  |  +--> StandardCodec --> Directory1
>                  +--> FilteringCodec --> StandardCodec --> Directory2
> {code}
> The end result of this chain is two indexes that are kept in sync - one is 
> the full regular index, and the other one is a filtered index.
