This pipeline will calculate percentiles over a set of sibling buckets. This is an exact
implementation, meaning it needs to cache a copy of the series in memory and sort it to determine
the percentiles.
This comes with a few limitations: to prevent serializing data around, only the requested percentiles
are calculated (unlike the TDigest version, which allows the java API to ask for any percentile).
It also needs to store the data in-memory, resulting in some overhead if the requested series is
very large.
