------------------------------------------

             Summary: Default codec should support dimensional values
                 Key: LUCENE-6861
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6861
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Michael McCandless
            Assignee: Michael McCandless


This is phase 3, follow-on from LUCENE-6852, to add dimensional values
support to Lucene, so we can index large "numeric" values like
BigInteger, BigDecimal, IPv6, and multi-dimensional things like 2d and
3d geo.

I created a new Lucene60Codec, implemented DimensionalFormat for it,
and a new FieldInfosFormat (to write/read the dimension settings for
each field), and moved Lucene54Codec to backwards-codecs.

I also fixed CheckIndex to do basic testing of the dimensional
values.
