--------------------------------------------

Hi [~k317h], sorry, I changed jobs and got super busy but I will try to have a 
look at this again soon ;)

Net/net I think it's reasonable to make it easier to upgrade an index w/o 
having to close and open a new IndexWriter to set a new merge policy ...

> Enhance UpgradeIndexMergePolicy with additional options

> Enhance UpgradeIndexMergePolicy to be a MergePolicy that can be used outside 
> the scope the IndexUpgrader.
> The enhancement aims to allow the UpgradeIndexMergePolicy to:
> 1) Delegate normal force merges to the underlying merge policy
> 2) Enable a flag that will explicitly tell UpgradeIndexMergePolicy when it 
> should start looking for upgrades.
> 3) Allow new segments to be considered to be merged with old segments, 
> depending on underlying MergePolicy.
> 4) Be configurable for backwards compatibility such that only segments 
> needing an upgrade would be considered when merging, no explicit upgrades.
