             Summary: Improvements to UnifiedHighlighter OffsetStrategies
                 Key: LUCENE-7526
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7526
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Timothy M. Rodriguez
            Priority: Minor


This ticket improves several of the UnifiedHighlighter FieldOffsetStrategies by 
reducing reliance on creating or re-creating TokenStreams.

The primary changes are as follows:

* AnalysisOffsetStrategy - split into two offset strategies
  * MemoryIndexOffsetStrategy - the primary analysis mode that utilizes a 
MemoryIndex for producing Offsets
  * TokenStreamOffsetStrategy - an offset strategy that avoids creating a 
MemoryIndex.  Can only be used if the query distills down to terms and automata.

* TokenStream removal 
  * MemoryIndexOffsetStrategy - previously a TokenStream was created to fill 
the memory index and then once consumed a new one was generated by uninverting 
the MemoryIndex back into a TokenStream if there were automata (wildcard/mtq 
queries) involved.  Now this is avoided, which should save memory and avoid a 
second pass over the data.
  * TermVectorOffsetStrategy - this was refactored in a similar way to avoid 
generating a TokenStream if automata are involved.
  * PostingsWithTermVectorsOffsetStrategy - similar refactoring

* CompositePostingsEnum - aggregates several underlying PostingsEnums for 
wildcard/mtq queries.  This should improve relevancy by providing unified 
metrics for a wildcard across all it's term matches

* Added a HighlightFlag for enabling the newly separated 
TokenStreamOffsetStrategy since it can adversely affect passage relevancy
