   @msokolov @mikemccand What is your recommendation on this for minor version 
upgrades? Lucene does not support writes on the old codec format for minor 
versions as well, but I can potentially override the codec to use the old 
writer in my application. Since Lucene has not tested IndexWriter with the old 
codec format, it can potentially result in unknown bugs.
   
   The challenge for Opensearch is that it stores the data in remote store, so 
upgrades are not seamless if we do not build the forward compatibility in 
Opensearch for old codec versions, so even minor version upgrades for Lucene 
become tricky.
