TopDocsCollector should be abstract super class that is the real 
"TopDocsCollector" contract, a subclass should implement the priority-queue 
logic. e.g. PQTopDocsCollector

                 Key: LUCENE-2542
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2542
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Search
    Affects Versions: 3.0.2
            Reporter: Woody Anderson
             Fix For: 4.0, 3.0.2


TopDocsCollector is both an abstract interface for producing TopDocs as well as 
a PriorityQueue based implementation.
Not all Collectors that could produce TopDocs must use a PriorityQueue, and it 
would be advantageous to allow the TopDocsCollector to be an "interface" type 
abstract class, with a PQTopDocsCollector sub-class.
While doing this, it'd be good to clean up the generics uses in these classes. 
As it's odd to create a TopFieldCollector and have to case the TopDocs object, 
when this can be fixed with generics.
