Description

IndexWriter.commit() can update the index version and generation but the update of version is lost.
As result added documents are not seen by IndexReader.reopen().
(There might be other side effects that I am not aware of).
The fix is 1 line - update also the version in SegmentsInfo.updateGeneration().
(Finding this line involved more lines though... )
