Remove client-side sorting of activities in a feed

[gpunto]

Goal

Part of AND-893.

Removing client-side sorting of activities in a feed as we can't assume a sort order for all feeds (e.g. "for you" feeds aren't necessarily sorted chronologically).

Implementation

Remove activitiesQueryConfig from different places, as the only thing we need to care about is the activity filter (query config contains filter + sorting).

Testing

Activities in feeds should be sorted in the order they came in.

Pull Request Overview

This PR removes client-side sorting of activities in feeds to support different feed types (e.g., "for you" feeds) that may not follow chronological ordering. The change removes the activitiesQueryConfig parameter that was used to maintain sorting information.

Key changes:

Are we not supposed to pass the original filter argument from the original query when loading the next page of activities?
