    Prevent a terrible race condition
    
    Looking into #649 I realized there's a pretty terrible race condition if
    an index is compacted quickly followed by an index update. Since we
    don't check the index updater message it would be possible for us to
    swap out a compaction change, followed by immediately resetting to the
    new state from the index updater. This would be bad as we'd possibly end
    up with a situation where our long lived index would be operating on a
    file that no longer existed on disk.
