Lifecycle management for CoreContainer before SolrCore-s are initialized 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-1107
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1107
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: search
         Environment: Java 5
            Reporter: Kay Kay


CoreContainer -> load creates and initializes SolrCore-s . 

For some practical purposes - we may want to do some initialization / injection 
before the (custom) request handlers and the (custom) search components of the 
multiple cores are getting instantiated. 

Hence we need a guaranteed way of providing lifecycle management that gets 
invoked once before the rest ( and hence , orthogonally  a destroy() needs to 
be invoked if there is an error in initialization ). 

New class added:  CoreContainerLifecycleListener ( that needs to be implemented 
by custom lifecycle listeners ) 

<code>
 */
public abstract class CoreContainerLifecycleListener {

  /**
   * Guaranteed to be called before the initialization of the individual solr
   * cores.
   * 
   * @param props
   *          Properties loaded from the config file. <br >
   *          <b>Important: This could be null </b>
   */
  public abstract void onInit(final Properties props);

  /**
   * Guaranteed to be called when an exception occurs in the initialization of
   * the solr core container.
   */
  public abstract void onDestroy();
}
</code>

Corresponding representation in solr.xml : 


<solr>
    <lifecycles>
          <lifecycle type="my.class.type.from.CoreContainerLifecycleListener" />
            <lifecycle 
type="my.class.type2.from.CoreContainerLifecycleListener" >
                  <property name="key" value="value" />
             </lifecycle>
     </lifecycles>
</solr>

2 CoreContainerLifecycleListener-s are instantiated and the method 
onInit(Properties) is invoked on the same. In case of a container 
initialization error- onDestroy() is called too.
