> Follow-up of LUCENE-5836.
> The fact that BytesRef (and CharsRef, IntsRef, LongsRef) can be used as 
> either pointers to a section of a byte[] or as buffers raises issues. The 
> idea would be to keep BytesRef but remove all the buffer methods like 
> copyBytes, grow, etc. and add a new class BytesRefBuilder that wraps a byte[] 
> and a length (but no offset), has grow/copyBytes/copyChars methods and the 
> ability to build BytesRef instances.
