WORM directory abstraction.

Modules

Errors specific to the directory module.

DirectoryLock	The `DirectoryLock` is an object that represents a file lock. See `LockType`
Lock	A directory lock.
MmapDirectory	Directory storing data in files, read via mmap.
RAMDirectory	A Directory storing everything in anonymous memory.
ReadOnlySource	Read object that represents files in tantivy.
WatchHandle	Controls how long a directory should watch for a file change.

INDEX_WRITER_LOCK	Only one process should be able to write tantivy's index at a time. This lock file, when present, is in charge of preventing other processes to open an IndexWriter.
META_LOCK	The meta lock file is here to protect the segment files being opened by `IndexReader::reload()` from being garbage collected. It makes it possible for another process to safely consume our index in-writing. Ideally, we may have prefered `RWLock` semantics here, but it is difficult to achieve on Windows.

Directory	Write-once read many (WORM) abstraction for where tantivy's data should be stored.
DirectoryClone	DirectoryClone

WatchCallback	Type alias for callbacks registered when watching files of a `Directory`.
WritePtr	Write object for Directory.
