Almost no Analyzer has a default ctor anymore due to the introduction
of Version. This should not be an issue for API users loading
Analyzers per reflection. You can still call the version Ctor
alternatively. Providing a default ctor with the current version could
be very risky in many regards, a backwards break based on version
could break older indexes etc etc.
I don't see that this keeps other applications from upgrading lucene.
