/**
 * Creates an array of elements, sorted in ascending order by the results of
 * running each element in a collection through the callback. This method
 * performs a stable sort, that is, it will preserve the original sort order
 * of equal elements. The callback is bound to `thisArg` and invoked with
 * three arguments; (value, index|key, collection).
 *
 * If a property name is provided for `callback` the created "_.pluck" style
 * callback will return the property value of the given element.
 *
 * If an array of property names is provided for `callback` the collection
 * will be sorted by each property value.
 *
 * If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback
 * will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object,
 * else `false`.
 *
 * @static
 * @memberOf _
 * @category Collections
 * @param {Array|Object|string} collection The collection to iterate over.
 * @param {Array|Function|Object|string} [callback=identity] The function called
 *  per iteration. If a property name or object is provided it will be used
 *  to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where" style callback, respectively.
 * @param {*} [thisArg] The `this` binding of `callback`.
 * @returns {Array} Returns a new array of sorted elements.
 * @example
 *
 * _.sortBy([1, 2, 3], function(num) { return Math.sin(num); });
 * // => [3, 1, 2]
 *
 * _.sortBy([1, 2, 3], function(num) { return this.sin(num); }, Math);
 * // => [3, 1, 2]
 *
 * var characters = [
 *   { 'name': 'barney',  'age': 36 },
 *   { 'name': 'fred',    'age': 40 },
 *   { 'name': 'barney',  'age': 26 },
 *   { 'name': 'fred',    'age': 30 }
 * ];
 *
 * // using "_.pluck" callback shorthand
 * _.map(_.sortBy(characters, 'age'), _.values);
 * // => [['barney', 26], ['fred', 30], ['barney', 36], ['fred', 40]]
 *
 * // sorting by multiple properties
 * _.map(_.sortBy(characters, ['name', 'age']), _.values);
 * // = > [['barney', 26], ['barney', 36], ['fred', 30], ['fred', 40]]
