> It's usually a common need to sort the results of an aggregation.
> The group_by method of tables returns a {{StructArray}} to provide multiple aggregations at once. Given that we don't support directly sorting a {{StructArray}} it means a few lines of code are necessary for a simple sort operation. It would be helpful to provide an helper method in {{StructArray}} that provides a one line solution for most simple cases.
