ChangeSet does not synchronise whilst using the Iterator

                 Key: COMPRESS-60
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-60
             Project: Commons Compress
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Sebb
             Fix For: 1.0


ChangeSet does not synchronize whilst using the Iterator on the Set "changes" 
which is a synchronizedSet.

The Javadoc for Collections.synchronizedSet says: "
...
It is imperative that the user manually synchronize on the returned set when 
iterating over it:
...
Failure to follow this advice may result in non-deterministic behavior."

This affects the add() and perfom() methods.

Also, the asSet() method returns a reference to the Set.  This method does not 
seem to be used at present, so perhaps could be removed.
Otherwise, it should either return a copy of the set, or the Javadoc should 
point out that any iteration over the set must synchronize on the set.
