Description

It would be useful to make CheckIndex commit point aware in order to check a specified commit point.
It's required also for [SOLR-566](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-566), where we're trying to create a new CheckIndexHandler, which needs to save a commit point before start checking and then check that specific commit point.

Research direction

Locate CheckIndex and review how it currently selects the index state to inspect. Read the linked SOLR-566 context for the CheckIndexHandler requirement, then identify how a saved commit point could be selected for checking. Done means CheckIndex can check the specified commit point without changing the requested handler workflow.
