Chetan Mehrotra updated OAK-4642:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
An index editor needs access to some more data points like below in the 
indexing process

# reindexing - Currently the index implementation use some heuristic like check 
before root state being empty to determine if they are running in reindexing 
mode
# indexing mode - sync or async
# index path of the index (see OAK-4152)
# CommitInfo (see OAK-4640)

For this we need to provide a way to pass these data points from indexing flow

* Approach 1 - Introduce a new interface which takes an {{IndexingContext}} 
instance which provide access to such datapoints. This would require some 
broader change
** Whereever the IndexEditorProvider is invoked it would need to check if the 
instance implements new interface. If yes then new method needs to be used
* Approach 2 - Here we can introduce such data points as part of callback 
interface. With this we would need to implement such methods in places where 
code constructs the callback
* Approach 3 - Make a backward incompatible change and just modify the existing 
interface and adapt the various implementation

For now #1 looks cleaner but may require broader change
