I agree, though I leaned towards using an exception because 1) no new
API needing future deprecation would then have been added, and 2) the
expectation (but not forced, and this is a problem) is that over time
all HitCollector subclasses would implement setBase, so the exception
would be the exception (heh) not the rule.
But I like Doug's proposal instead, since on upgrading to 2.9 you'll
see your code is deprecated, which then allows us to drop it in 3.0.
I have a slight preference for DocCollector.
This means any methods that accept a HitCollector would also be
deprecated, and we'd add a new method that takes DocCollector instead,
and change the deprecated one to wrap a DocBaseCollector around the
HitCollector and invoke the new method.

Could we leave (eg) TopDocCollector extending HitCollector in 2.9, and
then in 3.0 change it to directly extend DocCollector (Hitable)?
(This saves having to deprecate TopDocCollector and at least 2
others).

I think in 3.0, when changing APIs, we are only allowed to remove
deprecated APIs from 2.9? Ie we can't do more drastic changes.
