Description

There is confusion about these current Field options and I think we
should rename them, deprecating the old names in 2.4/2.9 and removing
them in 3.0. How about this:

TOKENIZED --> ANALYZED
UN_TOKENIZED --> NOT_ANALYZED
NO_NORMS --> NOT_ANALYZED_NO_NORMS

Should we also add ANALYZED_NO_NORMS?
