> Today, {{IndexWriter.setCommitData}} is early-binding: as soon as you call it, it clones the provided map and later on when commit is called, it uses that clone.
> But this makes it hard for some use cases where the app needs to record more timely information based on when specifically the commit actually occurs.  E.g., with LUCENE-7302, it would be helpful to store the max completed sequence number in the commit point: that would be a lower bound of operations that were after the commit.
> I think the most minimal way to do this would be to upgrade the existing method to take an {{Iterable<Map.Entry<String,String>}}, and document that it's now late binding, i.e. IW will pull an {{Iterator}} from that when it's time to write the segments file.
> Or we could also make an explicit interface that you pass (seems like overkill), or maybe have a listener or something (or you subclass IW) that's invoked when the commit is about to write the segments file, but that also seems like overkill.
