There is a new Attribute called ShiftAttribute (or NumericShiftAttribute), when trie range is moved to core. This attribute contains the shifted-away bits from the prefix encoded value during trie indexing. The idea is to e.g. have TokenFilters that may additional payloads or others to trie values, but only do this for specific precisions. In future, it may also be interesting to automatically add this attribute to the index. Maybe we should add a read/store method to attributes, that adds an attribute to the Posting using a IndexOutput/IndexInput (like the serialization methods).
