Fix rare bug where the takeWhileZero method would fail to repopulate the underlying buffer. This caused intermittent de-compression errors if takeWhileZero happened at a 64 bit boundary while the underlying buffer was empty.
The change also alters how sequence-lengths are encoded, to more consistently use the getGamma method instead of adding special significance to a zero first byte.
Finally, assertions are added checking the invariants of the gamma and delta coding logic as well as UrlIdCodec to earlier detect issues.
The change also restructures the internal API a bit, moving resultsFromDomain from RpcRawResultItem into RpcDecoratedResultItem, as the previous order was driving complexity in the code that generates these objects, and the consumer side of things puts all this data in the same object regardless.
Adding new ranking parameters to the API and routing them through the system, in order to permit integration of the new position data with the ranking algorithm.
The change also cleans out several parameters that no longer filled any function.
The priority index documents file can be trivially compressed to a large degree.
Compression schema:
```
00b -> diff docord (E gamma)
01b -> diff domainid (E delta) + (1 + docord) (E delta)
10b -> rank (E gamma) + domainid,docord (raw)
11b -> 30 bit size header, followed by 1 raw doc id (61 bits)
```
Previously this was the responsibility of the caller, which lead to the possibility of passing in improperly prepared buffers and receiving bad outcome
Btree index adds overhead and disk space and doesn't fill any function for the prio index.
* Update finalize logic with a new IO transformer that copies the data and prepends a size
* Update the reader to read the new format
* Added a test
The term data iterator is quite hot and was performing buffer slice operations that were not necessary.
Replacing with a fixed pointer alias that can be repositioned to the relevant data.
The positions data was also being wrapped in a GammaCodedSequence only to be immediately un-wrapped.
Removed this unnecessary step and move to copying the buffer directly instead.
IntArray gets the YAGNI axe. The array library had two implementations, one for longs which was used, and one for ints, which only ever saw bit rot. Removing the latter, as all it ever did was clutter up the codebase and add technical debt. If we need int arrays, we fork LongArray again (or add int capabilities to it)
Also cleaning up the interfaces, removing layers of redundant abstractions and adding javadocs.
Finally adding sz=2 specializations to the quick- and insertion sort algorithms. It seems the JIT isn't optimizing these particularly well, this is an attempt to help it out a bit.
Roll back to JDK 21 for now, and make Java version configurable in the root build.gradle
The project has run into no less than three distinct show-stopping bugs in JDK22, across multiple vendors, and gradle still doesn't fully support it, meaning you need multiple JDK versions installed.
