What is the difference between 'sort' and 'order' QueryOptions

'sort' defines how to bring the result items in a linear order, and 'order' whether to start at the front or the end of the order.

Sorry for causing some confusion here - this is my fault as I incorrectly added the "order" option to the document. I just reverted this. There just will be a sort field in query options, though this field is itself complex (an array of sort expressions, where each expression specifies something to sort by and a sort order).

For those who are interested, we already have a preliminary implementation of the query language: https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-Ask/tree/master/includes/Ask/Language
