bloom: Optimize bitmap scan path with streaming read
This commit replaces the per-page buffer read look in blgetbitmap() with
a reading stream, to improve scan efficiency, particularly useful for
large bloom indexes. Some benchmarking with a large number of rows has
shown a very nice improvement in terms of runtime and IO read reduction
with test cases up to 10M rows for a bloom index scan.
For the io_uring method, The author has reported a 3x in runtime with
io_uring while I was at close to a 7x. For the worker method with 3
workers, the author has reported better numbers than myself in runtime,
with the reduction in IO stats being appealing for all the cases
measured.
