Referring to https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/operator/aggregation/sortArray/

sorting of simple e.g. int array should be possible:

"$sortArray":
{
    "input": [ 1, 4, 1, 6, 12, 5 ],
    "sortBy": 1
}

however ArrayOperators.SortArray.by only accepts type Sort, which seems to always require a property. Not clear if any way to set a simple ASC/DESC order to sort by.

Seems simple feature that has been missed off, or if possible missed of documentation on how to achieve?

…ray (Fixes spring-projects#4929)

- Added methods `byValueAscending()` and `byValueDescending()` to the SortArray class
  to support sorting simple array types (e.g., integers, strings) in ascending and descending order.
- Updated tests to verify the correct functionality of sorting arrays by value.
- Refactored SortArray to handle sorting of simple types without requiring a property for sorting.

Hello team,

I’ve addressed the issue with sorting simple arrays (integers/strings) in PR #4943 . The fix includes the addition of the byValueAscending() and byValueDescending() methods, along with updated tests to ensure correct functionality.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if any further modifications or adjustments are needed. I’m happy to make any necessary changes.

Best regards,
Ranzy Blessings
