SOLR-9668 Support cursor paging in SolrEntityProcessor
SolrEntityProcessor paginates using the start and rows parameters which can
be very inefficient at large offsets. In fact, the current implementation is
impracticable to import large amounts of data (10M+ documents) because the data
import rate degrades from 1000docs/second to 10docs/second and the import gets
stuck.
This patch introduces support for cursor paging which offers more or less
predictable performance. In my tests the time to fetch the 1st and 1000th pages
was about the same and the data import rate was stable throughout the entire
import.
To enable cursor paging a user needs to add a "sort" attribute in the
entity configuration:
```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<dataConfig>
<document>
<entity name="se" processor="SolrEntityProcessor"
query="*:*"
rows="1000"
sort="id asc" <!-- turns on cursor paging. Must be a uniqueKey field
tie breaker -->
url="http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1";>
</entity>
</document>
</dataConfig>
```
If the "sort" attribute is missing then the default start/rows pagination
is used.
