Search GroupBy function, used to aggregate result entities based on a
specific scalar column.
several points to mention:
1. Temporarliy, the whole groupby is implemented separated from
iterative expr framework **for the first period**
2. In the long term, the groupBy operation will be incorporated into the
iterative expr framework:https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus/pull/28166
3. This pr includes some unrelated mocked interface regarding alterIndex
due to some unworth-to-mention reasons. All these un-associated content
will be removed before the final pr is merged. This version of pr is
only for review
4. All other related details were commented in the files comparison

Add inverted index for some data types in Milvus. This index type can
save a lot of memory compared to loading all data into RAM and speed up
the term query and range query.
Supported: `INT8`, `INT16`, `INT32`, `INT64`, `FLOAT`, `DOUBLE`, `BOOL`
and `VARCHAR`.
Not supported: `ARRAY` and `JSON`.
Note:
- The inverted index for `VARCHAR` is not designed to serve full-text
search now. We will treat every row as a whole keyword instead of
tokenizing it into multiple terms.
- The inverted index don't support retrieval well, so if you create
inverted index for field, those operations which depend on the raw data
will fallback to use chunk storage, which will bring some performance
loss. For example, comparisons between two columns and retrieval of
output fields.
The inverted index is very easy to be used.
Taking below collection as an example:
```python
fields = [
FieldSchema(name="pk", dtype=DataType.VARCHAR, is_primary=True, auto_id=False, max_length=100),
FieldSchema(name="int8", dtype=DataType.INT8),
FieldSchema(name="int16", dtype=DataType.INT16),
FieldSchema(name="int32", dtype=DataType.INT32),
FieldSchema(name="int64", dtype=DataType.INT64),
FieldSchema(name="float", dtype=DataType.FLOAT),
FieldSchema(name="double", dtype=DataType.DOUBLE),
FieldSchema(name="bool", dtype=DataType.BOOL),
FieldSchema(name="varchar", dtype=DataType.VARCHAR, max_length=1000),
FieldSchema(name="random", dtype=DataType.DOUBLE),
FieldSchema(name="embeddings", dtype=DataType.FLOAT_VECTOR, dim=dim),
]
schema = CollectionSchema(fields)
collection = Collection("demo", schema)
```
Then we can simply create inverted index for field via:
```python
index_type = "INVERTED"
collection.create_index("int8", {"index_type": index_type})
collection.create_index("int16", {"index_type": index_type})
collection.create_index("int32", {"index_type": index_type})
collection.create_index("int64", {"index_type": index_type})
collection.create_index("float", {"index_type": index_type})
collection.create_index("double", {"index_type": index_type})
collection.create_index("bool", {"index_type": index_type})
collection.create_index("varchar", {"index_type": index_type})
```
Then, term query and range query on the field can be speed up
automatically by the inverted index:
```python
result = collection.query(expr='int64 in [1, 2, 3]', output_fields=["pk"])
result = collection.query(expr='int64 < 5', output_fields=["pk"])
result = collection.query(expr='int64 > 2997', output_fields=["pk"])
result = collection.query(expr='1 < int64 < 5', output_fields=["pk"])
```

This will significantly reduce the memory usage while loading
- 1x memory usage and MBs overhead for buffer (memory mode)
- only MBs overhead for buffer (mmap mode)
