The Debian policy is to bump the major revision number every time there is an

Does this include adding methods to interfaces? Ie, is there some
automated check done by Debian that roughly matches our "JAR
drop-in-ability"?
The Debian process is manual, driven by policy.
IIRC, they look at the CHANGES.txt to see if, according to their policy,
it is a new major version, a new minor version or just a bug fix and
base their decision on that.
BTW, JPackage considers every release of Lucene to break backward
compatibility since they look at Lucene, core and contrib, as a whole.
They retain the Lucene numbering.
