CustomField Sort Clause

The `CustomField` Sort Clause sorts search results by raw search index fields.

## Arguments

- `field` - string representing the search index field name
- (optional) `sortDirection` - Query or LocationQuery constant, either `Query::SORT_ASC` or `Query::SORT_DESC`

## Limitations

> **Caution: Caution**
>
> To keep your project search engine independent, don't use the `CustomField` Sort Clause in production code. Valid use cases are: testing, or temporary (one-off) tools.
