Speed up advancing within a block. (#13692)
Advancing within a block consists of finding the first index within an array of
128 values whose value is greater than or equal a target. Given the small size,
it's not obvious whether it's better to perform a linear search, a binary
search or something else... It is surprisingly hard to beat the linear search
that we are using today.

Experiments suggested that the following approach works in practice:
 - First check if the next item in the array is greater than or equal to the
   target.
 - Then find the first 4-values interval that contains our target.
 - Then perform a branchless binary search within this interval of 4 values.

This approach still biases heavily towards the case when the target is very
close to the current index, only a bit less than a linear search.

Building

Basic steps:

  1. Install OpenJDK 21.
  2. Clone Lucene's git repository (or download the source distribution).
  3. Run gradle launcher script (gradlew).

We'll assume that you know how to get and set up the JDK - if you don't, then we suggest starting at https://jdk.java.net/ and learning more about Java, before returning to this README.
