Description

It looks like if tvrh request doesn't contain fl parameter and document doesn't have any fields with term vectors then Solr returns NPE.

Request: tvrh?shards.qt=/tvrh&fq=field%3Avalue&wt=json&q=id%3A123&tv.tf=true.

On our 'old' schema we had some fields with termVectors and even more fields with position data. In our new schema we tried to remove unused data so we dropped a lot of position data and some term vectors.

Our documents are 'sparsely' populated - not all documents contain all fields.

Above request was returning fine for our 'old' schema and returns 500 for our 'new' schema - on exactly same Solr (6.6.2).
