> PerFieldDocValuesFormat and PerFieldPostingsFormat currently only select the 
> format based on the field name.
> If we improve them to also support the selection based on the FieldInfo, it 
> will be possible to select based on some FieldInfo attribute, DocValuesType, 
> etc.
> +Example use-case:+
>  It will be possible to adapt the compression mode of doc values fields 
> easily based on the DocValuesType. E.g. compressing sorted and not binary doc 
> values.
> > User creates a new custom codec which provides a custom DocValuesFormat 
> > which extends PerFieldDocValuesFormat and implements the method
>  DocValuesFormat getDocValuesFormatForField(FieldInfo fieldInfo).
>  This method provides either a standard Lucene80DocValuesFormat (no 
> compression) or another new custom DocValuesFormat extending 
> Lucene80DocValuesFormat with BEST_COMPRESSION mode.
