SYNOPSIS
# abstract base class
DESCRIPTION
An InvIndex is an abstract representation of an inverted index,
KinoSearch1's core data structure. The archetypal implementation of an
invindex, FSInvIndex, is a single directory holding a collection of
files. However, to allow alternative implementations such as
RAMInvIndex, i/o and file manipulation are abstracted out rather than
executed directly by KinoSearch1's classes.
A "file" within an invindex might be a real file -- or it might be a
ram file, or eventually a database record, etc. Similarly,
"$invindex->delete_file($filename)" might delete a file from the file
system, or a key-value pair from a hash, or something else.
