/**
* The OrderByClause class represents an order by clause for a QgsFeatureRequest.
*
* It can be a simple field or an expression. Multiple order by clauses can be added to
* a QgsFeatureRequest to fine tune the behavior if a single field or expression is not
* enough to completely specify the required behavior.
*
* If expression compilation is activated in the settings and the expression can be
* translated for the provider in question, it will be evaluated on provider side.
* If one of these two premises does not apply, the ordering will take place locally
* which results in increased memory and CPU usage.
*
* If the ordering is done on strings, the order depends on the system's locale if the
* local fallback implementation is used. The order depends on the server system's locale
* and implementation if ordering is done on the server.
*
* In case the fallback code needs to be used, a limit set on the request will be respected
* for the features returned by the iterator but internally all features will be requested
* from the provider.
