> To filter a TermsEnum by a CompiledAutomaton, we currently have a number of
> different possibilities:
> * Terms.intersect(CompiledAutomaton, BytesRef) - efficient, but only works on
> NORMAL type automata
> * CompiledAutomaton.getTerms(Terms) - efficient, works on all automaton
> types, but requires a Terms instead of a TermsEnum, so no use for eg
> SortedDocValues.termsEnum()
> * AutomatonTermsEnum - takes a TermsEnum, so it's more general than the Terms
> methods above, but agian only works on NORMAL automata
> It's easy to do the wrong thing here, and at the moment we only guard against
> incorrect usage via runtime checks (see eg LUCENE-7576,
> https://github.com/flaxsearch/marple/issues/24). We should try and clean
> this up.
