Tantivy used to assume that all files could be somehow memory mapped. After this change, Directory return a `FileSlice` that can be reduced and eventually read into an `OwnedBytes` object. Long and blocking io operation are still required by they do not span over the entire file.
* add support for indexed bytes fast field
* remove backup code file
* refine test cases
* Simplified unit test. Renamed it as it is testing the storable part. Not the indexed part.
* Small refactoring and added unit test. If multivalued we only retain the first FAST value.

go_to_first_doc was typically calling seek with a target smaller than
doc.
Since SegmentPostings typically do a linear search on the full block,
regardless of the current position, it could have our segment postings
go backward.
* Do nothing when combining score values of excluded scores.
* Add test case for two excluded.
* Test score for two excluded terms.
* Use TopDocs in test_boolean_query_two_excluded
- Change in the DocSet and Scorer API. (@fulmicoton).
A freshly created DocSet point directly to their first doc. A sentinel value called TERMINATED marks the end of a DocSet.
`.advance()` returns the new DocId. `Scorer::skip(target)` has been replaced by `Scorer::seek(target)` and returns the resulting DocId.
As a result, iterating through DocSet now looks as follows
```rust
let mut doc = docset.doc();
while doc != TERMINATED {
// ...
doc = docset.advance();
}
```
The change made it possible to greatly simplify a lot of the docset's code.
- Misc internal optimization and introduction of the `Scorer::for_each_pruning` function. (@fulmicoton)
* Alternative take on boosted queries
* Fixing unit test
* Added boosting to the query grammar.
* Made BoostQuery public.
* Added support for boosting field in QueryParser
Closes#547
