LUCENE-8757: Improving Default Segments To Thread Mapping Algorithm
The current slicing algorithm assigns a thread per segment, which
can be detrimental to performance in case the distribution has
a large number of small segments. The patch introduces a slicing
algorithm which coalesces smaller segments to a single thread,
thus reducing the impact of context switching by limiting the
number of threads

> The current segments to threads allocation algorithm always allocates one
> thread per segment. This is detrimental to performance in case of skew in
> segment sizes since small segments also get their dedicated thread. This can
> lead to performance degradation due to context switching overheads.
>
> A better algorithm which is cognizant of size skew would have better
> performance for realistic scenarios
