/**
 * Expert: Calculate query weights and build query scorers.
 * <p>
 * The purpose of {@link Weight} is to ensure searching does not
 * modify a {@link Query}, so that a {@link Query} instance can be reused. <br>
 * {@link Searcher} dependent state of the query should reside in the
 * {@link Weight}. <br>
 * {@link IndexReader} dependent state should reside in the {@link Scorer}.
 * <p>
 * A <code>Weight</code> is used in the following way:
 * <ol>
 * <li>A <code>Weight</code> is constructed by a top-level query, given a
 * <code>Searcher</code> ({@link Query#createWeight(Searcher)}).
 * <li>The {@link #sumOfSquaredWeights()} method is called on the
 * <code>Weight</code> to compute the query normalization factor
 * {@link Similarity#queryNorm(float)} of the query clauses contained in the
 * query.
 * <li>The query normalization factor is passed to {@link #normalize(float)}. At
 * this point the weighting is complete.
 * <li>A <code>Scorer</code> is constructed by {@link #scorer(IndexReader,boolean,boolean)}.
 * </ol>
