I believe I have finally squashed this bug with KS commit r5729, which
re-enables the skipping optimization on SegPostingList.  It turns out to have
been a search-time problem in SegPostingList after all, rather than something
hiding in PostingsWriter's main loop -- but that didn't become clear until
after I'd cleaned out most of the
PostingsWriter/PostingPool/PostingPoolQueue/SortExternal/SortExRun rat's nest.

So that's one item checked off the TODO list.
