New patch folding in Shai's suggestions (thanks!).

I didn't yet add a hard check for an evil SearcherFactory...
                
> NRTManager shouldn't expose its private SearcherManager

> Spinoff from LUCENE-3769.
> To actually obtain an IndexSearcher from NRTManager, it's a 2-step process 
> now.
> You must .getSearcherManager(), then .acquire() from the returned 
> SearcherManager.
> This is very trappy... because if the app incorrectly calls maybeReopen on 
> that private SearcherManager (instead of NRTManager.maybeReopen) then it can 
> unexpectedly cause threads to block forever, waiting for the necessary gen to 
> become visible.  This will be hard to debug... I don't like creating trappy 
> APIs.
> Hopefully once LUCENE-3761 is in, we can fix NRTManager to no longer expose 
> its private SM, instead subclassing ReferenceManaager.
> Or alternatively, or in addition, maybe we factor out a new interface 
> (SearcherProvider or something...) that only has acquire and release methods, 
> and both NRTManager and ReferenceManager/SM impl that, and we keep 
> NRTManager's SM private.
