             Summary: refactor bulk merge logic
                 Key: LUCENE-5894
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5894
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Robert Muir


Today its only usable really by stored fields/term vectors, has hardcoded logic 
in SegmentMerger specific to certain impls, etc.

It would be better if this was generalized to terms/postings/norms/docvalues as 
well.

Bulk merge is boring, the real idea is to allow codecs to do more: e.g. with 
this patch they could do streaming checksum validation, or prevent the loading 
of "latent" norms, or other things we cannot do today.
