Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe
I am working on Integrating KNNVectorsFormat in k-NN plugin for native engines(faiss/nmslib). To ensure that formats provided added in plugins can also be picked by SPI, I added this change in Lucene: apache/lucene@8d7bf86 which is approved and merged in branch_9x and main of Lucene.
Describe the solution you'd like
I am creating this request to pull in the changes from Lucene at-least till commit in main branch of Opensearch.
The last upgrade was done a month back. Ref: 39ac2df
