Make SegmentInfos#readCommit(Directory, String, int) public (#14027)

The corresponding readLatestCommit method is public and can be used to
read segment infos from indices that are older than N - 1.
The same should be possible for readCommit, but that requires the method
that takes the minimum supported version as an argument to be public.
