Changes the
QueryBuilder#sortmethod to accept sort options as a hash in addition to the existing string format. This allows the user to pass advanced sort options likemissing,mode,unmapped_type, etc.The main driver behind this change is the multiple-index search feature that was added with JAY-676 (#35). When searching across multiple indexes, it's important to handle cases where a field might be missing in some indexes. By allowing sort options, users can now specify how to handle this scenario.
Without this possibility queries will just fail if a field is missing in one of the indexes.
