Description
Spinoff from #4812.
at a minimum, we should not write negative offset deltas, should cleanup the code to use codecutil header, etc.
maybe its possible we could make it more efficient too.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the attached LUCENE-3739.patch and the parent issue #4812 to understand the existing term vectors format and the proposed cleanup. Done means avoiding negative offset deltas, using the CodecUtil header, and determining whether the format can be made more efficient without leaving the scope undefined.
