[jira] [Created] (LUCENE-8200) Allow doc-values to be updated atomically together with a document

Simon Willnauer created LUCENE-8200:

             Summary:  Allow doc-values to be updated atomically together with a document
                 Key: LUCENE-8200
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8200
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 7.4, master (8.0)
            Reporter: Simon Willnauer
            Assignee: Simon Willnauer
         Attachments: LUCENE-8200.patch

Today we can only update a document by deleting all previously indexed documents for the given term. In some cases like when deletes are not `final` in the way that documents that are marked as deleted should not be merged away a `soft-delete` is needed which is possible when doc-values updates can be done atomically just like delete and add in updateDocument(s)
    
This change introduces such a soft update that reuses all code paths from deletes to update all previously updated documents for a given term instead of marking it as deleted. This is a spinnoff from LUCENE-8198
