Adds a `--using-versions` to index subcommand. This enables caller to call for instance:

    ```
    wp vip-search index --using-versions --indexables=post --setup
    ```

This command will create a new version of index and fully index the content. While
this is happening the previous version of index is still active and therefore not
impacted and serving correct content. After indexing finishes, the command will 
activate the newly indexed version and remove the previous version.

We upgraded the Jetpack 9.8 subtree to the final 9.8 release, following the previous
beta version.

This has not been rolled out to all sites yet, so if you want to test it, remember
to set the appropriate define:

    ```wp-block-preformatted
    define( 'VIP_JETPACK_PINNED_VERSION', '9.8' );
    ```

[Parse.ly](https://parse.ly) gives creators, marketers, and developers the tools
to understand content performance, prove content value, and deliver tailored content
experiences that drive meaningful results.

The wp-parsely plugin makes it a snap to add the required tracking code to enable
Parse.ly on your WordPress site.

This change adds the plugin to the repository, but is disabled unless intentionally
enabled for your site via the `wpvip_parsely_load_mu` filter.
