Sort on fitness or confidence #809

New capabilities have been added to the search:search and REST API's as part of bugtrack issue 41610. We need to add equivalent functionality to the Java Client API.

It's some query builder work, indeed. Note that although the vocabulary now supports these new options, they don't exhibit any different behavior from sorting on score.

Thanks for the comment, Charles. But I don't understand. Shouldn't the values for fitness differ from confidence, and differ from score? If the values for each result differ, shouldn't sorting on a particular value change the order of the results?
