   Sorry for getting to this PR so late, but I realized that data-blind 
quantization would be super helpful for another use-case too: in an attempt to 
support multiple HNSW graphs backed by the same vector storage (#14758), we 
need to be able to effectively de-duplicate vectors across fields.
   
   Lucene currently supports a centroid-centered quantization, which might 
cause the same raw vector to be quantized differently across different fields. 
If it is data-blind (i.e. centered on the zero vector), quantized bytes can be 
sanely de-duplicated.
   
   See #16506.
