To allow for the future modularization of Elasticsearch with Java Modules, there are a number preparatory tasks that need be completed. This is one such task: eliminate split packages.
Specifically, relocate
org.apache.lucene.search.uhighlight
toorg.elasticsearch.lucene.search.uhighlight
to avoid unnecessary package-private dependencies on Lucene - unnecessary since Lucene 9.0.The relocation target package seems reasonable, supported by the fact that the existing tests already occupy that namespace.
Note: beyond the package rename, the only substantive change is to expose the protected member through an accessor - which avoids the need for package-private access.
