In order to implement an asynchronous builtins.sort (required for moving builtins to generators), we need an `async` sorting algorithm as our comparators involve invoking a Nix function. This commit implements a fairly simple, optimised bubble sort as the sorting algorithm used in our `async fn sort_by`. There don't seem to be any crates providing async versions of things like this, and they might actually be pretty hard to implement generically due to some constraints about how `async` works. Note that this algorithm is less efficient than the hybrid "timsort/mergesort/insert sort" used in the Rust standard library. I tried to write a merge sort implementation, but ran into isuses with the sort becoming unstable because our comparators can not yield equality. This is the simplest implementation which I know to be correct. Note that as of this commit this is *not* covered by the Tvix test suite, but it will be as soon as the rest of the generator code lands.
