    Description

      The Hits class has several drawbacks as pointed out in LUCENE-954.
      The other search APIs that use TopDocCollector and TopDocs should be used instead.

      This patch:

      • deprecates org/apache/lucene/search/Hits, Hit, and HitIterator, as well as
        the Searcher.search( * ) methods which return a Hits Object.
      • removes all references to Hits from the core and uses TopDocs and ScoreDoc
        instead
      • Changes the demo SearchFiles: adds the two modes 'paging search' and 'streaming search',
        each of which demonstrating a different way of using the search APIs. The former
        uses TopDocs and a TopDocCollector, the latter a custom HitCollector implementation.
      • Updates the online tutorial that descibes the demo.

      All tests pass.
