issue: #29988
This pr adds full-support for wildcard pattern matching from end to end.
Before this pr, the users can only use prefix match in their expression,
for example, "like 'prefix%'". With this pr, more flexible syntax can be
combined.
To do so, this pr makes these changes:
- 1. support regex query both on index and raw data;
- 2. translate the pattern matching to regex query, so that it can be
handled by the regex query logic;
- 3. loose the limit of the expression parsing, which allows general
pattern matching syntax;
With the support of regex query in segcore backend, we can also add
mysql-like `REGEXP` syntax later easily.

issue: #29793
Use `DocSetCollector` instead of `TopDocsCollector`, which will avoid
scoring and sorting.

issue: https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus/issues/27704
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"])
```
