GEODE-2936: Refactoring OrderByComparator
[View the JIRA ticket
here.](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-2936)
`OrderByComparator.java` contained a lot of redundant and confusing code,
as well as somewhat misleading comments (for example, the `compare` method was
supposed to throw a `ClassCastException` if the parameters given could not be
compared using this comparator, but it didn't. This has been fixed). Code that
is shared by both the `compare` and `evaluateSortCriteria` methods has been
moved to helper methods to improve readability and reduce redundancy.
