Adrien Grand updated LUCENE-7371:
---------------------------------
    Attachment: LUCENE-7371.patch

Here is a patch. On the IndexAndSearchOpenStreetMaps benchmark, it saves 9.7% 
storage (577MB -> 521B). The "distance" and "poly 5" benchmarks report the same 
response times but the "box" benchmark is about 4% slower.

> For compressing values, BKDReader only relies on shared prefixes in a block. 
> We could probably easily do better. For instance there are only 256 possible 
> values for the first byte of the dimension that the values are sorted by, yet 
> we use a block size of 1024. So by using something simple like run-length 
> compression we could save 6 bits per value on average.
