Add singleton optimization for DateHistogramAggregator

[shreyah963]

Description

Optimized the 'DateHistogramAggregator' to provide a specialized fast path for single-valued date fields. This optimization reduces method call overhead and eliminates unnecessary iteration logic when processing single values.

Key Changes

Single-Value Optimization

• Added detection of single-valued fields using DocValues.unwrapSingleton()
• Created a specialized collector path for single-valued cases
• Eliminated unnecessary iteration and value counting for single values

Before vs After Comparison

Before (Original Implementation):

SortedNumericDocValues values = valuesSource.longValues(ctx);
return new LeafBucketCollectorBase(sub, values) {
    @Override
    public void collect(int doc, long owningBucketOrd) throws IOException {
        if (values.advanceExact(doc)) {
            int valuesCount = values.docValueCount();  // Always 1 for single values
            long previousRounded = Long.MIN_VALUE;
            for (int i = 0; i < valuesCount; ++i) {    // Unnecessary loop
                long value = values.nextValue();
                long rounded = preparedRounding.round(value);
                // ... processing ...
            }
        }
    }
};

After (Optimized Implementation):

final NumericDocValues singleton = DocValues.unwrapSingleton(values);
if (singleton != null) {
    return new LeafBucketCollectorBase(sub, values) {
        @Override
        public void collect(int doc, long owningBucketOrd) throws IOException {
            if (singleton.advanceExact(doc)) {
                long value = singleton.longValue();     // Direct access
                collectValue(sub, doc, owningBucketOrd, value);
            }
        }
    };
}

Technical Details

1. Method Call Reduction:

   • Before: advanceExact → docValueCount → nextValue → round
   • After: advanceExact → longValue

2. Memory Access Pattern:

   • Before: Multiple object accesses for iteration state
   • After: Direct value access without iteration overhead

3. Code Path Optimization:

   • Specialized fast path for single values
   • Original path preserved for multi-valued fields
   • Clean separation between single and multi-value logic

Performance Impact

• Reduces per-document processing overhead for single-valued date fields
• Eliminates unnecessary method calls and object allocations
• Maintains original functionality for multi-valued fields
• ~12.5% improvement in service time for date histogram aggregations on single-valued fields

Backwards Compatibility

• Fully backwards compatible
• No changes to query syntax or results
• Purely internal optimization

Should we have jvm debug port enabled by default? I think this will cause performance issues for production.
