Description

In LUCENE-8907 I reverted LUCENE-8778 from the 8x branch.
Can we backport it to 8x branch again, with transparent backwards compatibility (by emulating the factory loading method of Lucene 8.1)?

I am not so sure about it would be better or not to backport the changes, however, maybe it is good for Solr to have SOLR-13593 without waiting for release 9.0.
