Review Comment:
   The problem with using `CollectorManager` is that reduce method takes 
`Collection<C> collectors` as an argument. It means that users not only have to 
manage the list of collectors themselves, but also make sure that their 
`CollectorManager` and collection of `Collector`s are of the same type `C`. It 
becomes a problem for DrillSideways, where we want to use different 
`CollectorManager`s for different dimensions. In theory we can overcome that by 
keeping a list of types for dimensions, and cast Collectors' collection items 
to the right type before calling `#reduce`. But creating `CollectorOwner` class 
looks like better solution to me - it allows DrillSideways and IndexSearcher to 
be ignorant of collector's and result's types. As a bonus, it manages the list 
of Collectors for both `DrillSideways` and `IndexSearcher`.
   
   Please let me know if you think its not worth it - we can revisit the idea 
of keeping list of types in DrillSideways?
