Control the auto-adjustment of targetHits in ANN using post-filtering.

When searching the HNSW index in a post-filtering case,
targetHits is auto-adjusted in an effort to still expose targetHits hits to first-phase ranking after post-filtering.
The following formula is now used to ensure an upper bound of adjustedTargetHits,
avoiding that the search in the HNSW index takes too long.

adjustedTargetHits = min(targetHits / estimatedHitRatio, targetHits * targetHitsMaxAdjustmentFactor).

The target-hits-max-adjustment-factor can be set in a rank profile and overriden per query.
The value is in the range [1.0,inf], with the default being 20.0.

When setting this to 1.0, auto-adjustment of targetHits is effectively disabled.
