> Add an extension that provides a PTransform which performs local(non-distributed) sorting. It will sort in memory until the buffer is full, then flush to disk and use external sorting.
>     
> Consumes a PCollection of KVs from primary key to iterable of secondary key and value KVs and sorts the iterables. Would probably be called after a GroupByKey. Uses coders to convert secondary keys and values into byte arrays and does a lexicographical comparison on the secondary keys.
> Uses Hadoop as an external sorting library.
