> Currently, the DocsEnum api assumes you *might* consumes freqs at any time.
> Additionally the DocsAndPositionsEnum api assumes you *might* consume a payload at any time.
> High level things such as queries know what kinds of data they need from the index up-front,
> and the current APIs are limiting to codecs (other than Standard, which has these intertwined).
> So, we either need DocsAndFreqsEnum, DocsPositionsAndPayloadsEnum, or at least booleans
> in the methods that create these to specify whether you want freqs or payloads.
> we did this for freqs in the bulkpostings API, which is good, but these DocsEnum apis
> are also new in 4.0 and there's no reason to introduce non-performant APIs.
> additionally when/if we add payloads to the bulkpostings API, we should make sure we keep
> the same trend and require you to specify you want payloads or not up-front.
