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.
