Performance Improvements

• Added Benchmarks project to help measure performance improvements.
• Added dictionary to FieldMetaData to speed up metadata lookup.
• Moved tokenizer StringBuffer reference to reduce allocations.
• Added configurable row strategy to tune performance.

Convenience Features

• Changed FieldMetaData IndexOf to return -1 on not found instead of throwing TermNotFound exception.
• Added Length property to IFieldMetaData.
• Added new FactoryConfiguration class to provide configurability to ArchiveReader composite classes. This includes the following configuration classes for tuning performance.
  • FileReaderConfiguration
    • BufferSize - Allows tuning the size of the FileReader buffer.
  • RowFactoryConfiguration
    • Strategy - Allows selection of RowFactory strategy as follows:
      • Lazy - Uses IEnumerable.ElementAt to access fields. Use this strategy when accessing fields in a row in index order or when only accessing a subset of fields.
      • Greedy - Tokenizes all fields and converts them to an array. Use this strategy when accessing all fields in a row in random or reverse order.
  • ArchiveFolderConfiguration
    • OutputPath - Allows user to specify where archives are unzipped to.
    • ShouldCleanup - Allows user to control whether the folder is cleaned up after ArchiveReader is disposed.
• All terms are now readonly.
• Default values are now returned when they are defined. This also fixes a potential bug where default values are defined without an index.
• Restored support for netstandard2.0 and .NET Framework. If you are using version 0.2.0 then you can skip up to this version. Note: the netstandard2.0 version does not support IEnumerableAsync readers.
