   # Description
   
   In benchmarks, using numeric doc values to store taxonomy facet ordinals 
shows almost a 400% qps improvement in browse-related taxonomy-based tasks 
(instead of custom delta-encoding into a binary doc values field). This PR 
changes the encoding of facet ordinals, while maintaining backwards 
compatibility with 8.x indexes.
   
   # Solution
   
   This change moves to standard numeric doc values for storing taxonomy 
ordinals.
   
   # Tests
   
   No new tests added. Lots of existing test coverage for taxonomy faceting 
functionality.
   
   **NOTE**: I will add new testing that ensures backwards compatibility 
support remains with 8.x. I'm putting this PR out for feedback while doing so.
