LongHashSet is used for the set of numbers, but it has some issues:
Practically we should take advantage of the fact numbers come in sorted order for multivalued fields: just like range queries do. So we use min/max to our advantage, including termination of docvalues iteration.
Actually it is generally a win to just check min/max even in the single-valued case: these constant time comparisons are cheap and can avoid hashing, etc.
In the worst-case, if all of your query Sets contain both the minimum and maximum possible values, then it won't help, but it doesn't hurt either.
