> Currently HNSW graph is represented as a single layer graph. 
>  We would like to extend it to handle hierarchy as per [discussion|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9004?focusedCommentId=17393216&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-17393216]. 
>  
> TODO tasks:
> - add multiple layers in the HnswGraph class
>  - modify the format in  Lucene90HnswVectorsWriter and Lucene90HnswVectorsReader to handle multiple layers
> - modify graph construction and search algorithm to handle hierarchy
>  - run benchmarks
