Native MMapDir

                 Key: LUCENE-3178
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3178
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core/store
            Reporter: Michael McCandless


Spinoff from LUCENE-2793.

Just like we will create native Dir impl (UnixDirectory) to pass the right OS 
level IO flags depending on the IOContext, we could in theory do something 
similar with MMapDir.

The problem is MMap is apparently quite hairy... and to pass the flags the 
native code would need to invoke mmap (I think?), unlike UnixDir where the code 
"only" has to open the file handle.
