We did a major cleanup to the vector API in 9.5 but there are a few things
that still annoy me a bit that are worth fixing in my opinion:
 - VectorValues, the API for float vectors, still exposes a binaryValue()
API. We should remove it and only expose floats in the API?
 - Byte vectors should be represented as byte[] instead of BytesRef in
ByteVectorValues, KnnByteVectorField and KnnByteVectorQuery.

If these two changes are low-hanging fruits, maybe we can fold them in
order to avoid pushing another breaking change to the API later on. I'll
give it a try later today if none beats me to it.
