      The $group rewrite for time-series does not take into account the difference between  _id: { d: '$meta1.a.b' } and _id: '$meta1.a.b'. The rewrite returns the same result for both group queries, even though the returned documents should have different _id fields. Steps to reproduce are below.

      This bug will be fixed in 7.1 by SERVER-78234, since that ticket rewrites much of this logic, but previous versions need to be corrected. The problem is that the implementation of DocumentSourceGroup::getIdFields returns a vector of size 1 in both cases, and the rewrite logic assumes the _id field looks like _id: '$meta1.a.b'. We can use the _idFieldNames in the group processor to find differentiate between these two cases.
