* API for replacing table sort order with a newly created order.

* The table sort order is used to sort incoming records in engines that can request an ordering.
* <p>
* Apply returns the new sort order for validation.
* <p>
* When committing, these changes will be applied to the current table metadata. Commit conflicts
* will be resolved by applying the pending changes to the new table metadata.
