Here a first patch to show the API.

The current patch misses to replace all "if (infoStream != null)" by "if (infoStream.isEnabled())", so it of course slows down indexing because all messages are passed to the no-longer-null InfoStream

I also have to check for other components using InfoStream except IndexWriter to add null checks with IAE.

> Followup on a [thread by Shai Erea on java-dev@lao|http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/IndexWriter-infoStream-is-final-td3537485.html]: I already discussed with Robert about that, that there is one thing missing. Currently the IW only checks if the infoStream!=null and then passes the message to the method, and that *may* ignore it. For your requirement it is the case that this is enabled or disabled dynamically. Unfortunately if the construction of the message is heavy, then this wastes resources.
> I would like to add another method to this class: abstract boolean isMessageEnabled() that can also be implemented. I would then replace all null checks in IW by this method. The default config in IW would be changed to use a NoOutputInfoStream that returns false here and ignores the message.
> A simple logger wrapper for e.g. log4j / slf4j then could look like (ignoring component, could be enabled):
> {code:java}
> Loger log = YourLoggingFramework.getLogger(IndexWriter.class);
> public void message(String component, String message) {
>   log.debug(component + ": " + message);
> }
> public boolean isMessageEnabled(String component) {
>   return log.isDebugEnabled();
> }
> {code}
> Using this you could enable/disable logging live by e.g. the log4j management console of your app server by enabling/disabling IndexWriter.class logging.
> The changes are really simple:
> - PrintStreamInfoStream returns true, always, mabye make it dynamically enable/disable to allow Shai's request
> - infoStream.getDefault() is never null and can never be set to null. Instead the default is a singleton NoOutputInfoStream that returns false of isMessageEnabled().
> - All null checks on infoStream should be replaced by infoStream.isMessageEanbled(component), this is possible as always != null. There are no slowdowns by this - it's like Collections.emptyList() instead stupid null checks.
