Add deprecated 'transition' api for Document/Field
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-3682
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3682
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Robert Muir
             Fix For: 4.0


I think for 4.0 we should have a deprecated transition api for Field so you can 
do new Field(..., Field.Store.xxx, Field.Index.yyy) like before.

These combinations would just be some predefined fieldtypes that are used 
behind the scenes if you use these deprecated ctors

Sure it wouldn't be 'totally' backwards binary compat for Field.java, but why 
must it be all or nothing? I think this would eliminate a big
hurdle for people that want to check out 4.x
