Description
LengthFilterFactory's min/max args are currently required, but it seems like we could give them sensible defaults and make them optional...
min = 0
max = IndexWriter.MAX_TERM_LENGTH

Research direction
Start by locating LengthFilterFactory and its min/max argument handling, then inspect how IndexWriter.MAX_TERM_LENGTH is exposed for this use. Confirm the intended defaults are min=0 and max=IndexWriter.MAX_TERM_LENGTH, while explicit arguments continue to work; completion should include relevant regression coverage if the existing test entry point is found.
