Addresses apache#13778 TermInSetQuery used to have an accessor to its terms that was removed in apache#12173 to protect leaking internal encoding details. This introduces an accessor to the term data in the query that doesn't expose internal but merely allows iterating over the decoded BytesRef, making inspection of the querys content possible again.

Description
While working on implementing BP reordering over vectors, the idea came up that we might be able to simplify our APIs by surfacing random access to vector values. Today it exists and every vector reader implements it, but the API hides it behind an interface (RandomAccessVectorValues) that requires casting to access it. I'm opening this issue to see how that might look and get feedback. This is intended to be a refactor that would make it easier to maintain and enhance these classes and shouldn't introduce functional changes.
