/**
* Lucene 4.1 postings format, which encodes postings in packed integer blocks
* for fast decode.
*
* <p><b>NOTE</b>: this format is still experimental and
* subject to change without backwards compatibility.
*
* <p>
* Basic idea:
* <ul>
* <li>
* <b>Packed Blocks and VInt Blocks</b>:
* <p>In packed blocks, integers are encoded with the same bit width ({@link PackedInts packed format}):
* the block size (i.e. number of integers inside block) is fixed (currently 128). Additionally blocks
* that are all the same value are encoded in an optimized way.</p>
* <p>In VInt blocks, integers are encoded as {@link DataOutput#writeVInt VInt}:
* the block size is variable.</p>
* </li>
*
* <li>
* <b>Block structure</b>:
* <p>When the postings are long enough, Lucene41PostingsFormat will try to encode most integer data
* as a packed block.</p>
* <p>Take a term with 259 documents as an example, the first 256 document ids are encoded as two packed
* blocks, while the remaining 3 are encoded as one VInt block. </p>
* <p>Different kinds of data are always encoded separately into different packed blocks, but may
* possibly be interleaved into the same VInt block. </p>
* <p>This strategy is applied to pairs:
* &lt;document number, frequency&gt;,
* &lt;position, payload length&gt;,
* &lt;position, offset start, offset length&gt;, and
* &lt;position, payload length, offsetstart, offset length&gt;.</p>
* </li>
*
* <li>
* <b>Skipdata settings</b>:
* <p>The structure of skip table is quite similar to previous version of Lucene. Skip interval is the
* same as block size, and each skip entry points to the beginning of each block. However, for
* the first block, skip data is omitted.</p>
* </li>
*
* <li>
* <b>Positions, Payloads, and Offsets</b>:
* <p>A position is an integer indicating where the term occurs within one document.
* A payload is a blob of metadata associated with current position.
* An offset is a pair of integers indicating the tokenized start/end offsets for given term
* in current position: it is essentially a specialized payload. </p>
* <p>When payloads and offsets are not omitted, numPositions==numPayloads==numOffsets (assuming a
* null payload contributes one count). As mentioned in block structure, it is possible to encode
* these three either combined or separately.
* <p>In all cases, payloads and offsets are stored together. When encoded as a packed block,
* position data is separated out as .pos, while payloads and offsets are encoded in .pay (payload
* metadata will also be stored directly in .pay). When encoded as VInt blocks, all these three are
* stored interleaved into the .pos (so is payload metadata).</p>
* <p>With this strategy, the majority of payload and offset data will be outside .pos file.
* So for queries that require only position data, running on a full index with payloads and offsets,
* this reduces disk pre-fetches.</p>
* </li>
* </ul>

* </ul>

* <a name="Termdictionary" id="Termdictionary"></a>
* <dl>
* <dd>
* <b>Term Dictionary</b>
*
* <p>The .tim file contains the list of terms in each
* field along with per-term statistics (such as docfreq)
* and pointers to the frequencies, positions, payload and
* skip data in the .doc, .pos, and .pay files.
* See {@link BlockTreeTermsWriter} for more details on the format.
* </p>
*
* <p>NOTE: The term dictionary can plug into different postings implementations:
* the postings writer/reader are actually responsible for encoding
* and decoding the Postings Metadata and Term Metadata sections described here:</p>
*
* <ul>
* <li>Postings Metadata --&gt; Header, PackedBlockSize</li>
* <li>Term Metadata --&gt; (DocFPDelta|SingletonDocID), PosFPDelta?, PosVIntBlockFPDelta?, PayFPDelta?,
* SkipFPDelta?</li>
* <li>Header, --&gt; {@link CodecUtil#writeHeader CodecHeader}</li>
* <li>PackedBlockSize, SingletonDocID --&gt; {@link DataOutput#writeVInt VInt}</li>
* <li>DocFPDelta, PosFPDelta, PayFPDelta, PosVIntBlockFPDelta, SkipFPDelta --&gt; {@link DataOutput#writeVLong VLong}</li>
* </ul>
* <p>Notes:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>Header is a {@link CodecUtil#writeHeader CodecHeader} storing the version information
* for the postings.</li>
* <li>PackedBlockSize is the fixed block size for packed blocks. In packed block, bit width is
* determined by the largest integer. Smaller block size result in smaller variance among width
* of integers hence smaller indexes. Larger block size result in more efficient bulk i/o hence
* better acceleration. This value should always be a multiple of 64, currently fixed as 128 as
* a tradeoff. It is also the skip interval used to accelerate {@link DocsEnum#advance(int)}.
* <li>DocFPDelta determines the position of this term's TermFreqs within the .doc file.
* In particular, it is the difference of file offset between this term's
* data and previous term's data (or zero, for the first term in the block).On disk it is
* stored as the difference from previous value in sequence. </li>
* <li>PosFPDelta determines the position of this term's TermPositions within the .pos file.
* While PayFPDelta determines the position of this term's &lt;TermPayloads, TermOffsets?&gt; within
* the .pay file. Similar to DocFPDelta, it is the difference between two file positions (or
* neglected, for fields that omit payloads and offsets).</li>
* <li>PosVIntBlockFPDelta determines the position of this term's last TermPosition in last pos packed
* block within the .pos file. It is synonym for PayVIntBlockFPDelta or OffsetVIntBlockFPDelta.
* This is actually used to indicate whether it is necessary to load following
* payloads and offsets from .pos instead of .pay. Every time a new block of positions are to be
* loaded, the PostingsReader will use this value to check whether current block is packed format
* or VInt. When packed format, payloads and offsets are fetched from .pay, otherwise from .pos.
* (this value is neglected when total number of positions i.e. totalTermFreq is less or equal
* to PackedBlockSize).
* <li>SkipFPDelta determines the position of this term's SkipData within the .doc
* file. In particular, it is the length of the TermFreq data.
* SkipDelta is only stored if DocFreq is not smaller than SkipMinimum
* (i.e. 128 in Lucene41PostingsFormat).</li>
* <li>SingletonDocID is an optimization when a term only appears in one document. In this case, instead
* of writing a file pointer to the .doc file (DocFPDelta), and then a VIntBlock at that location, the
* single document ID is written to the term dictionary.</li>
* </ul>
* </dd>
* </dl>

* <a name="Termindex" id="Termindex"></a>
* <dl>
* <dd>
* <b>Term Index</b>
* <p>The .tip file contains an index into the term dictionary, so that it can be
* accessed randomly. See {@link BlockTreeTermsWriter} for more details on the format.</p>

* </dl>
*
*
* <a name="Frequencies" id="Frequencies"></a>
* <dl>
* <dd>
* <b>Frequencies and Skip Data</b>
*
* <p>The .doc file contains the lists of documents which contain each term, along
* with the frequency of the term in that document (except when frequencies are
* omitted: {@link IndexOptions#DOCS_ONLY}). It also saves skip data to the beginning of
* each packed or VInt block, when the length of document list is larger than packed block size.</p>
*
* <ul>
* <li>docFile(.doc) --&gt; Header, &lt;TermFreqs, SkipData?&gt;<sup>TermCount</sup></li>
* <li>Header --&gt; {@link CodecUtil#writeHeader CodecHeader}</li>
* <li>TermFreqs --&gt; &lt;PackedBlock&gt; <sup>PackedDocBlockNum</sup>,
* VIntBlock? </li>
* <li>PackedBlock --&gt; PackedDocDeltaBlock, PackedFreqBlock?
* <li>VIntBlock --&gt; &lt;DocDelta[, Freq?]&gt;<sup>DocFreq-PackedBlockSize*PackedDocBlockNum</sup>
* <li>SkipData --&gt; &lt;&lt;SkipLevelLength, SkipLevel&gt;
* <sup>NumSkipLevels-1</sup>, SkipLevel&gt;, SkipDatum?</li>
* <li>SkipLevel --&gt; &lt;SkipDatum&gt; <sup>TrimmedDocFreq/(PackedBlockSize^(Level + 1))</sup></li>
* <li>SkipDatum --&gt; DocSkip, DocFPSkip, &lt;PosFPSkip, PosBlockOffset, PayLength?,
* PayFPSkip?&gt;?, SkipChildLevelPointer?</li>
* <li>PackedDocDeltaBlock, PackedFreqBlock --&gt; {@link PackedInts PackedInts}</li>
* <li>DocDelta, Freq, DocSkip, DocFPSkip, PosFPSkip, PosBlockOffset, PayByteUpto, PayFPSkip
* --&gt;
* {@link DataOutput#writeVInt VInt}</li>
* <li>SkipChildLevelPointer --&gt; {@link DataOutput#writeVLong VLong}</li>
* </ul>
* <p>Notes:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>PackedDocDeltaBlock is theoretically generated from two steps:
* <ol>
* <li>Calculate the difference between each document number and previous one,
* and get a d-gaps list (for the first document, use absolute value); </li>
* <li>For those d-gaps from first one to PackedDocBlockNum*PackedBlockSize<sup>th</sup>,
* separately encode as packed blocks.</li>
* </ol>
* If frequencies are not omitted, PackedFreqBlock will be generated without d-gap step.
* </li>
* <li>VIntBlock stores remaining d-gaps (along with frequencies when possible) with a format
* that encodes DocDelta and Freq:
* <p>DocDelta: if frequencies are indexed, this determines both the document
* number and the frequency. In particular, DocDelta/2 is the difference between
* this document number and the previous document number (or zero when this is the
* first document in a TermFreqs). When DocDelta is odd, the frequency is one.
* When DocDelta is even, the frequency is read as another VInt. If frequencies
* are omitted, DocDelta contains the gap (not multiplied by 2) between document
* numbers and no frequency information is stored.</p>
* <p>For example, the TermFreqs for a term which occurs once in document seven
* and three times in document eleven, with frequencies indexed, would be the
* following sequence of VInts:</p>
* <p>15, 8, 3</p>
* <p>If frequencies were omitted ({@link IndexOptions#DOCS_ONLY}) it would be this
* sequence of VInts instead:</p>
* <p>7,4</p>
* </li>
* <li>PackedDocBlockNum is the number of packed blocks for current term's docids or frequencies.
* In particular, PackedDocBlockNum = floor(DocFreq/PackedBlockSize) </li>
* <li>TrimmedDocFreq = DocFreq % PackedBlockSize == 0 ? DocFreq - 1 : DocFreq.
* We use this trick since the definition of skip entry is a little different from base interface.
* In {@link MultiLevelSkipListWriter}, skip data is assumed to be saved for
* skipInterval<sup>th</sup>, 2*skipInterval<sup>th</sup> ... posting in the list. However,
* in Lucene41PostingsFormat, the skip data is saved for skipInterval+1<sup>th</sup>,
* 2*skipInterval+1<sup>th</sup> ... posting (skipInterval==PackedBlockSize in this case).
* When DocFreq is multiple of PackedBlockSize, MultiLevelSkipListWriter will expect one
* more skip data than Lucene41SkipWriter. </li>
* <li>SkipDatum is the metadata of one skip entry.
* For the first block (no matter packed or VInt), it is omitted.</li>
* <li>DocSkip records the document number of every PackedBlockSize<sup>th</sup> document number in
* the postings (i.e. last document number in each packed block). On disk it is stored as the
* difference from previous value in the sequence. </li>
* <li>DocFPSkip records the file offsets of each block (excluding )posting at
* PackedBlockSize+1<sup>th</sup>, 2*PackedBlockSize+1<sup>th</sup> ... , in DocFile.
* The file offsets are relative to the start of current term's TermFreqs.
* On disk it is also stored as the difference from previous SkipDatum in the sequence.</li>
* <li>Since positions and payloads are also block encoded, the skip should skip to related block first,
* then fetch the values according to in-block offset. PosFPSkip and PayFPSkip record the file
* offsets of related block in .pos and .pay, respectively. While PosBlockOffset indicates
* which value to fetch inside the related block (PayBlockOffset is unnecessary since it is always
* equal to PosBlockOffset). Same as DocFPSkip, the file offsets are relative to the start of
* current term's TermFreqs, and stored as a difference sequence.</li>
* <li>PayByteUpto indicates the start offset of the current payload. It is equivalent to
* the sum of the payload lengths in the current block up to PosBlockOffset</li>
* </ul>
* </dd>
* </dl>
*
* <a name="Positions" id="Positions"></a>
* <dl>
* <dd>
* <b>Positions</b>
* <p>The .pos file contains the lists of positions that each term occurs at within documents. It also
* sometimes stores part of payloads and offsets for speedup.</p>
* <ul>
* <li>PosFile(.pos) --&gt; Header, &lt;TermPositions&gt; <sup>TermCount</sup></li>
* <li>Header --&gt; {@link CodecUtil#writeHeader CodecHeader}</li>
* <li>TermPositions --&gt; &lt;PackedPosDeltaBlock&gt; <sup>PackedPosBlockNum</sup>,
* VIntBlock? </li>
* <li>VIntBlock --&gt; &lt;PositionDelta[, PayloadLength?], PayloadData?,
* OffsetDelta?, OffsetLength?&gt;<sup>PosVIntCount</sup>
* <li>PackedPosDeltaBlock --&gt; {@link PackedInts PackedInts}</li>
* <li>PositionDelta, OffsetDelta, OffsetLength --&gt;
* {@link DataOutput#writeVInt VInt}</li>
* <li>PayloadData --&gt; {@link DataOutput#writeByte byte}<sup>PayLength</sup></li>
* </ul>
* <p>Notes:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>TermPositions are order by term (terms are implicit, from the term dictionary), and position
* values for each term document pair are incremental, and ordered by document number.</li>
* <li>PackedPosBlockNum is the number of packed blocks for current term's positions, payloads or offsets.
* In particular, PackedPosBlockNum = floor(totalTermFreq/PackedBlockSize) </li>
* <li>PosVIntCount is the number of positions encoded as VInt format. In particular,
* PosVIntCount = totalTermFreq - PackedPosBlockNum*PackedBlockSize</li>
* <li>The procedure how PackedPosDeltaBlock is generated is the same as PackedDocDeltaBlock
* in chapter <a href="#Frequencies">Frequencies and Skip Data</a>.</li>
* <li>PositionDelta is, if payloads are disabled for the term's field, the
* difference between the position of the current occurrence in the document and
* the previous occurrence (or zero, if this is the first occurrence in this
* document). If payloads are enabled for the term's field, then PositionDelta/2
* is the difference between the current and the previous position. If payloads
* are enabled and PositionDelta is odd, then PayloadLength is stored, indicating
* the length of the payload at the current term position.</li>
* <li>For example, the TermPositions for a term which occurs as the fourth term in
* one document, and as the fifth and ninth term in a subsequent document, would
* be the following sequence of VInts (payloads disabled):
* <p>4, 5, 4</p></li>
* <li>PayloadData is metadata associated with the current term position. If
* PayloadLength is stored at the current position, then it indicates the length
* of this payload. If PayloadLength is not stored, then this payload has the same
* length as the payload at the previous position.</li>
* <li>OffsetDelta/2 is the difference between this position's startOffset from the
* previous occurrence (or zero, if this is the first occurrence in this document).
* If OffsetDelta is odd, then the length (endOffset-startOffset) differs from the
* previous occurrence and an OffsetLength follows. Offset data is only written for
* {@link IndexOptions#DOCS_AND_FREQS_AND_POSITIONS_AND_OFFSETS}.</li>
* </ul>
* </dd>
* </dl>
*
* <a name="Payloads" id="Payloads"></a>
* <dl>
* <dd>
* <b>Payloads and Offsets</b>
* <p>The .pay file will store payloads and offsets associated with certain term-document positions.
* Some payloads and offsets will be separated out into .pos file, for performance reasons.</p>
* <ul>
* <li>PayFile(.pay): --&gt; Header, &lt;TermPayloads, TermOffsets?&gt; <sup>TermCount</sup></li>

* </ul>
* <p>Notes:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>The order of TermPayloads/TermOffsets will be the same as TermPositions, note that part of
* payload/offsets are stored in .pos.</li>
* <li>The procedure how PackedPayLengthBlock and PackedOffsetLengthBlock are generated is the

* While PackedStartDeltaBlock follows a same procedure as PackedDocDeltaBlock.</li>
* <li>PackedPayBlockNum is always equal to PackedPosBlockNum, for the same term. It is also synonym
* for PackedOffsetBlockNum.</li>
* <li>SumPayLength is the total length of payloads written within one block, should be the sum
* of PayLengths in one packed block.</li>
* <li>PayLength in PackedPayLengthBlock is the length of each payload associated with the current
* position.</li>
