docs: replace deprecated mergeGroupMultiplier in features.md
PR #335 — Merged May 2026
Replaces the deprecated spark.indextables.mergeOnWrite.mergeGroupMultiplier configuration key with the current spark.indextables.mergeOnWrite.minBatchesToTrigger in the features reference documentation, closing issue #237.
The deprecation note in configuration.md directs users from mergeGroupMultiplier to the batchCpuFraction + minBatchesToTrigger pair. minBatchesToTrigger=2 is the closest 1:1 substitute for mergeGroupMultiplier=2.0 — both raise the merge trigger threshold by 2× over the default — making this a clean, low-ambiguity migration for existing users.
