Hoss Man reopened SOLR-6968:
----------------------------

Doing some perf testing, i found that the SPARSE representation of HLL can 
cause some heinous response times for large sets -- a minor part of the issue 
seems to be the slower insertion rate compared to the FULL representation 
(documented), but a much bigger factor is that _merging_ multiple (large) 
SPARSE HLLs is almost 10x slower then merging FULL HLLs of the same size.

it might be worth adding tuning options and/or hueristics to control if/when 
SPARSE representation should be used (in cases where folks have smaller sets 
and care more about memory then speed), but for now i'm just going disable it.

> add hyperloglog in statscomponent as an approximate count

> stats component currently supports "calcDistinct" but it's terribly 
> inefficient -- especially in distib mode.
> we should add support for using hyperloglog to compute an approximate count 
> of distinct values (using localparams via SOLR-6349 to control the precision 
> of the approximation)
