Description

SOLR-11119 will switch the Trie fieldtypes in the .system collection's schema to Points.

Users with pre-7.0 .system collections will no longer be able to use them once Trie fields have been removed (8.0).

Solr should provide a Collections API command MIGRATESYSTEMCOLLECTION to automatically convert a Trie-based .system collection to a Points-based one.
