Class FieldsConsumer
Abstract API that consumes terms, doc, freq, prox, offset and payloads postings. Concrete implementations of this actually do "something" with the postings (write it into the index in a specific format).
The lifecycle is:
- FieldsConsumer is created by FieldsConsumer(SegmentWriteState).
- For each field, AddField(FieldInfo) is called, returning a TermsConsumer for the field.
- After all fields are added, the consumer is Dispose()d.
