Review Comment:
   these first four lines are param names if I'm not mistaken.
   
   Maybe we can call them '<name>_PARAM' e.g. 'BITS_PARAM'
   
   Or add a comment line at the beginning that clearly group them as param 
names,
   it's a minor though, but can increase code readability

Review Comment:
   From an initial review the ScalarQuantizedDenseVectorField should always 
return the Lucene99HnswScalarQuantizedVectorsFormat.
   
   The traditional DenseVectorField, should always return 
Lucene99HnswVectorsFormat

   reading it more we are mixing up the 'knn' algorithm (only HNSW supported

Review Comment:
   mmmm not sure about this part:
   
   The only knn algorithm supported right now is 'HNSW'.
   While for vector storage, there's flat (what currently supported), scalar 
quantised and binary quantised.
   Effectively in Lucene HNSW vector formats define how to build and read the 
HNSW graph (where each vector ID is a node). 
   Vector storage formats define how to store the vectors themselves.
   
   The vector storage format is directly (and only) used by a the graph format 
parent ( I had in my to-do list to re-organise the package to easily 
differentiate graph from storage formats)
   
   **Lucene99HnswVectorsFormat** uses **Lucene99FlatVectorsFormat**.
   • Store for each field the vector metadata (.vemf) and vector data (vec).
   • It has a dedicated writer and reader, dependent on the vector encoding 
(BYTE or
   FLOAT32).
   • It has its scorer (that just uses the supplied similarity).
   
   **Lucene99HnswScalarQuantizedVectorsFormat** uses 
**Lucene99ScalarQuantizedVectorsFormat** (for scalar quantisation).
   • Lossy compression from float32 to a number of bits (4 or 7)
   • Raw disk increases (raw + quantized vectors).
   • Off-heap memory decreases as quantised vectors are loaded.
   • Search is faster.
   • It has a dedicated writer and reader, dependent on the bits to use for 
quantisation.
   
   Given that, I suspect with this contribution we want to differentiate 
between:
   Lucene99HnswVectorsFormat and Lucene99HnswScalarQuantizedVectorsFormat 
(without manipulating directly the vector storage).
   
   -> the if then else should be changed I suspect, I don't understand it as it 
is right now as we are mixing a graph format 
(Lucene99HnswScalarQuantizedVectorsFormat already using the scalar quantised 
storage format) and a vectore storage format 
(Lucene99ScalarQuantizedVectorsFormat)

Review Comment:
   to be fair, checking the original DenseVectorField, the same renaming could 
help there as well I suspect
