iprithv opened a new pull request, #15993:
URL: https://github.com/apache/lucene/pull/15993

   ## Description
   - Add `DocValuesSkipper#maxValueCount()` so consumers can determine whether 
a doc values field is definitely single-valued without unwrapping iterators.
   - Persist exact global `maxValueCount` metadata in Lucene90 doc values 
skipper metadata for new segments.
   - Add validation and test coverage for empty, single-valued, and 
multi-valued skipper fields.
   
   ## Compatibility
   Older Lucene90 segments do not have this metadata, so `maxValueCount()` 
returns a safe upper bound: `0` for empty fields and `Integer.MAX_VALUE` 
otherwise. Exact values become available once segments are rewritten or merged 
with the new format.
