   # Description
   
   This change is a possible improvement to how we do facet counting. Today, we 
accumulate counts in an HPPC int/int map or an `int[]` array. However, it is 
possible many of these counts are singletons, which means we could use a 
`FixedBitSet` to keep track of the bits for singleton counts, and if those 
counts increase to be greater than 1, we can accumulate counts like we do 
today. This could be more space efficient as we could be saving a lot of 
entries in the int/int map.
   
   # Solution
   
   I created a new `private class IntIntHashMapWithFixedBitSet` in 
`IntTaxonomyFacets` class. This class keeps all the necessary operations that 
`IntIntHashMap` has but now wrapped with a `FixedBitSet`.
   
   # Tests
   
   Since this change should not change or add to the behavior of the 
`IntTaxonomyFacets` class, I did not add any unit tests as existing ones should 
catch any issues with `IntTaxonomyFacets`.
