Description

I think we should bring back Hits (easy to use), but with less problems than before.

We should fix #4588 and then we can always use searchAfter on this thing so
that it never uses too much RAM. also we can clean up other wierd parts about it.

Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #4588 and the attached LUCENE-4052.patch, then inspect how the former Hits API relates to searchAfter. The issue does not name source files or tests; completion would require defining the replacement scope, addressing the RAM concern, and deciding which other behaviors to clean up.
