             Summary: Avoid unnecessary top element replacement for equal 
elements in PriorityQueue
                 Key: LUCENE-9960
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9960
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Dawid Weiss
            Assignee: Dawid Weiss


Currently the priority queue implementation always replaces the top (minimum) 
element, even if it is equal to the provided argument. This seems a redundant. 
I've modified the condition and polished a few other minor things (unnecessary 
cast, size modification even if add throws AIOOB).

Separately from the above, it is quite weird that a pq of size zero is allowed 
(and actually used!). The code is incorrect in this case, allowing add() to 
proceed and top() to return the added value. I understand it's a heavily used 
data structure but perhaps we should at least add an assertion to add() 
checking for zero-size?
