This change is really small and does make a big difference on per-field RAM 
usage.

I don't think it does? If i have an index with say, 10 fields. How much will 
this patch save me?

> Lucene uses a non-trivial baseline bytes of heap for each indexed
> field, and I know it's abusive for an app to create 100K indexed
> fields but I still think we can and should make some effort to reduce
> heap usage per unique field?
> E.g. in block tree we store 3 BytesRefs per field, when 3 byte[]s
> would do...
