Description

In LUCENE-7500 we're removing LeafReader.fields for 7.x. Here in this issue for 6.x and 7.x we simply avoid calling this method (and also MultiFields.getFields) when there is an obvious replacement for LeafReader.terms(field) (and MultiFields.getTerms). Any absolutely non-trivial changes are occurring in LUCENE-7500.
