Description

The new secondary index API needs to throw IOException on some of the methods (where they're missing).

For index types that index an entire row (like lucene) we need to change the api to handle one instance of the index per ColumnFamily. This can be done by adding a PerColumnSecondary and PerRowSecondaryIndex base classes. When the index manager sees this it will add all columns of the same index class to the same index instance. and on search it will send the entire row to the class vs updating each column.
