Original vector data storage public interface and struct

Public Interfaces```go
type FileManager interface {
GetFile(path string) . It may be discussed and changed in future.

Code Block
type ChunkManager interface {
	GetPath(key string) (string, error)

...


	Write(key string, content []byte) error

...


	Exist(

...

key string) bool
	Read(key string) ([]byte, error)
	ReadAt(key string, p []byte, off int64) (n int, err error)
}



ReadFile(path string) []byte
}
```A VectorFileManager implements FileManager interface and add a method to download vector file from remote and deserialize its content, finally save pure vector to local storage.```go

Code Block
type

...

 VectorChunkManager struct {
	localChunkManager  ChunkManager
	remoteChunkManager ChunkManager
}

func NewVectorChunkManager(localChunkManager ChunkManager, remoteChunkManager ChunkManager) *VectorChunkManager

localChunkManager {
localFileManager FileManager
remoteFileManager FileManager
insertCodec *InsertCodec
}
```localFileManager is responsible to local file manager. And can be implements with golang os library.
remoteFileManager remoteChunkManager is responsible for cloud storage or remote server storage, and will be implemented with minio client now.

When the offset of vector is obtained, we can get origin vector data from local vector data file.

Get the vector the ID through the following process:

1.Get segment's id size in each binlog and vector file names when load_segment. The binlogs file will be sorted by file name's last id to guarantee the order is increasing. Suppose we get sizes are 300, 300, 400, 500.

2.Get the id offset in segment in C layer. Suppose we get an offset 700.

3.We can know the vector we want to get is in 3rd vector files. for 300+300 <700<300+300+400

4.Get the 3rd file in to memory and deserialize out pure vector. Save the vector to local storage. Release the memory usage.

5.Mmap the file to memory, and get the data of offset 100. The data length differs data type and dim.



Test Plan

Do query / search (with vector field in output fields) in all kinds of combinations of following scenarios, check the correctness of result.
