/**
 * This attribute is requested by TermsHashPerField to index the contents.
 * This attribute can be used to customize the final byte[] encoding of terms.
 * 
 * Consumers of this attribute call {@link #getBytesRef()} up-front, and then
 * invoke {@link #fillBytesRef()} for each term. Example:
 * 
 *   final TermToBytesRefAttribute termAtt = tokenStream.getAttribute(TermToBytesRefAttribute.class);
 *   final BytesRef bytes = termAtt.getBytesRef();
 *
 *   while (tokenStream.incrementToken() {
 *
 *     // you must call termAtt.fillBytesRef() before doing something with the bytes.
 *     // this encodes the term value (internally it might be a char[], etc) into the bytes.
 *     int hashCode = termAtt.fillBytesRef();
 *
 *     if (isInteresting(bytes)) {
 *     
 *       // because the bytes are reused by the attribute (like CharTermAttribute's char[] buffer),
 *       // you should make a copy if you need persistent access to the bytes, otherwise they will
 *       // be rewritten across calls to incrementToken()
 *
 *       doSomethingWith(new BytesRef(bytes));
 *     }
 *   }
 *   ...
 * 
 * @lucene.experimental This is a very expert API, please use
 * {@link CharTermAttributeImpl} and its implementation of this method
 * for UTF-8 terms.
