Make max batch size optional #530

Closed wangshan closed 6 months ago

wangshan commented 6 months ago

As discussed in ietf118.

Not all applications require batch size to be tightly controlled within [min, max] batch size. For some applications, satisfy min batch size is sufficient. Making max batch size optional also allows fixed_size query to mimic time_interval query type.

Note the name fixed_size isn't strictly true anymore without max batch size, but I think it still conveys the right information: The aggregator should check one or two fixed batch size before outputting, therefore I opt to keep the current name.
