---------------------------------------
I opened a Github Pull Request using my idea. I did not yet implement it for
all Factory subclasses (this will be a quite huge patch), so this is for a
quick review only, to discuss ideas:

> Retire SPIClassIterator from master because Java 9+ uses different mechanism
> to load services when module system is used

> We currently have our own implementation of the service loader standard (SPI)
> fo several reasons:
> (1) In some older JDKs the order of classpath was not respected and this lead
> to wrong order of codecs implementing the same SPI name. This caused tests to
> sometimes use wrong class (we had this in Lucene 4 where we had a test-only
> read/write Lucene3 codec that was listed before the read-only one). That's no
> longer an issue, the order of loading does not matter. In addition, Java now
> does everything correct.
> (2) In Analysis, we require SPI classes to have a constructor taking args (a
> Map of params in our case). We also extract the NAME from a static field.
> Standard service loader does not support this, it tries to instantiate the
> class with default ctor.
> With Java 9+, the ServiceLoader now has a stream() method that allows to
> filter and preprocess classes:
> https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/ServiceLoader.html#stream()
> This allows us to use the new interface and just get the loaded class (which
> may come from module-info.class or a conventional SPI file):
> https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/ServiceLoader.Provider.html#type()
> This change allows us to convert Lucene to modules listing all SPIs in the
> module-info.java.
