Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-8330:
-------------------------------------

Can we remove the hasDeletions from the interface? It makes the interface 
harder/seems redundant since its just numDeletesToMerge > 0. I never understood 
the crazy info.info.dir == writer.getDirectory() from before, but i didn't have 
the time to change it to an assert and see why its really needed from tests.  
At least if its really needed, the javadocs of the interface should explain 
enough so we understand why it has this crazy check. 

In general though, the cleanup will be great for tests.

>  This change introduces a new MergePolicy.MergeContext interface
>     that is easy to mock and cuts over all instances of IW to MergeContext.
>     Since IW now implements MergeContext the cut over is straight forward.
>     This reduces the exposed API available in MP dramatically and allows
>     efficient testing without relying on IW to improve the coverage and
>     testability of our MP implementations.
