This new change extends the Vindex protocol slightly differently from the previous approach. In the previous approach, a Vindex had the option of supporting an additional MultiColumn Map API on top of the existing single column Map. This allowed for a Vindex to be a functional one through the MultiColumn API, and a lookup one through the regular Map. But the same functionality can be achieved by two vindexes, and leads to a more flexible and composable design. In the new design, a Vindex can decide if it wants to provide a SingleColumn of MultiColumn API. If the caller is capable of using the MultiColumn API, they use it. Otherwise, they treat the vindex as non-existent. This is the initial cut. With this change, we can bring back the restriction to disallow owned vindexes from being primary. Insert and VReplication will use MultiColumn. The rest of v3 will continue to use SingleColumn for now. Signed-off-by: Sugu Sougoumarane <ssougou@gmail.com>

Nice clean design. Better than the previous iteration.
A couple of nits and a question inline.

Can bad things happen if this turns out to be nil?

The previous function guarantees that the value won't be nil.

This new change extends the Vindex protocol slightly differently
from the previous approach.
In the previous approach, a Vindex had the option of supporting
an additional MultiColumn Map API on top of the existing single
column Map. This allowed for a Vindex to be a functional one
through the MultiColumn API, and a lookup one through the regular
Map.
But the same functionality can be achieved by two vindexes, and
leads to a more flexible and composable design.
In the new design, a Vindex can decide if it wants to provide
a SingleColumn of MultiColumn API. If the caller is capable of
using the MultiColumn API, they use it. Otherwise, they treat
the vindex as non-existent.
This is the initial cut. With this change, we can bring back
the restriction to disallow owned vindexes from being primary.
Insert and VReplication use MultiColumn. The rest of v3
will continue to use SingleColumn for now.
