This optimization changes the index.TermFieldReader.Next() interface
API, adding an optional, pre-allocated *TermFieldDoc parameter, which
can help prevent garbage creation.
Currently bleve batch is build by user goroutine
Then read by bleve gourinte
This is still safe when used correctly
However, Reset() will modify the map, which is now a data race
This fix is to simply make batch.Reset() alloc new maps.
This provides a data-access pattern that can be used safely.
Also, this thread argues that creating a new map may be faster
than trying to reuse an existing one:

Separate but related, I have opted to remove the "unsafe batch"
checking that we did. This was always limited anyway, and now
users of Go 1.6 are just as likely to get a panic from the
runtime for concurrent map access anyway. So, the price paid
by us (additional mutex) is not worth it.
fixes#360 and #260
this lays the foundation for supporting the new firestorm
indexing scheme. i'm merging these changes ahead of
the rest of the firestorm branch so i can continue
to make changes to the analysis pipeline in parallel
in some limited cases we can detect unsafe usage
in these cases, do not trip over ourselves and panic
instead return a strongly typed error upside_down.UnsafeBatchUseDetected
also, introduced Batch.Reset() to allow batch reuse
this is currently still experimental
closes#195
this introduces disk format v4
now the summary rows for a term are stored in their own
"dictionary row" format, previously the same information
was stored in special term frequency rows
this now allows us to easily iterate all the terms for a field
in sorted order (useful for many other fuzzy data structures)
at the top-level of bleve you can now browse terms within a field
using the following api on the Index interface:
FieldDict(field string) (index.FieldDict, error)
FieldDictRange(field string, startTerm []byte, endTerm []byte) (index.FieldDict, error)
FieldDictPrefix(field string, termPrefix []byte) (index.FieldDict, error)
fixes#127
more things can return error now
in a couple of places we had to swallow errors because they didn't
fit the existing API. in these case and proactively in a few
others we now return error as well.
also the batch API has been updated to allow performing
set/delete internal within the batch
In the index/store package
introduce KVReader
creates snapshot
all read operations consistent from this snapshot
must close to release
introduce KVWriter
only one writer active
access to all operations
allows for consisten read-modify-write
must close to release
introduce AssociativeMerge operation on batch
allows efficient read-modify-write
for associative operations
used to consolidate updates to the term summary rows
saves 1 set and 1 get op per shared instance of term in field
In the index package
introduced an IndexReader
exposes a consisten snapshot of the index for searching
At top level
All searches now operate on a consisten snapshot of the index
ultimately this is make it more convenient for us to wire up
different elements of the analysis pipeline, without having to
preload everything into memory before we need it
separately the index layer now has a mechanism for storing
internal key/value pairs. this is expected to be used to
store the mapping, and possibly other pieces of data by the
top layer, but not exposed to the user at the top.
this change was then exposed at the higher levels
also the beer-sample app was upgraded to index in batches of 100
by default. this yieled an indexing speed up from 27s to 16s.
