Description

Accumulo - Add an IndexWriter that provides raw mutations for use in m/r

The current IndexWriter uses a BatchWriter. We could have an alternative implementation that returns mutations for use in m/r jobs - that would encapsulate all the writing logic in the AccumuloIndexAdapter. See, e.g. AttributeIndexJob.

Research direction

Start by reading the current IndexWriter and the AccumuloIndexAdapter, then compare the AttributeIndexJob example mentioned in the issue. Determine how an alternative writer can expose raw mutations for map/reduce use while keeping writing logic in the adapter. Done means the adapter supports this mutation-producing path without relying on a BatchWriter.
