markrmiller 1381dd9287 SOLR-9055: Make collection backup/restore extensible.
- Introduced a parameter for the Backup operation to specify index backup strategy.
- Introduced two strategies for backing up index data.
  - One using core Admin API (BACKUPCORE)
  - Other skipping the backup of index data altogether. This is useful when
    the index data is copied via an external mechanism in combination with named
    snapshots (Please refer to SOLR-9038 for details)
  - In future we can add additional implementations of this interface (e.g. based on HDFS snapshots etc.)
- Added a backup property to record the Solr version. This helps to check the compatibility
  of backup with respect to the current version during the restore operation. This
  compatibility check is not added since its unclear what the Solr level compatibility guidelines
  are. But at-least having version information as part of the backup would be very useful.
