"you need to forcefully get a new reader which you can make changes to, such
that it does not affect the original reader"
exactly. I was thinking reopen(boolean forceNew) given people probably
expect to use reopen for this behavior, and may not think to look at clone.
Currently the reopen seems to reuse all of the internal data structures if
there have been no changes except for creating a new fieldsReader. What
data structures need to be cloned besides deletedDocs? It looks like a
clone of norms is made already.
