 Review comment:
   Two points here:
   
   The binary search inside the block allowed the posting format to improve the 
seek performance significantly without increasing the size of the FST. Indeed 
we can have larger blocks for same seek speed, so the FST size is smaller since 
there are less leaves.
   
   We do use the API for Lucene50PostingsReader.postings(). This is a public 
method, but unfortunately it internally casts the TermState param to an 
internal IntBlockTermState. Maybe it would be cleaner for this API to have a 
public interface for IntBlockTermState, or make it public since its fields are 
accessed directly. That way we wouldn't have to have a class in this package.
