More explicit sorting documentation #67

It seems like the sort parameter should be added to the standard arguments section. @drinks, if you can confirm this I will update the docs.

It's missing because the facet queries don't take standard sort params. It should, however, be included in all of the endpoints that support it.

The motivating example is from the Codecademy lesson where we tell people to search the text.json endpoint by date but the text.json documentation lacks a list of valid sort values.
