feat(builtins): full sort -k KEYDEF parsing with multi-key support#920
Conversation
Parse the complete GNU sort key spec: start/end fields (-k2,3), character positions (-k2.3,3.4), per-key flags (-k2n,2 -k3r,3), and multiple keys for cascading sort priority. Closes #906

-k2 now means "field 2 only" (same as -k2,2) instead of "field 2 to end of line". This matches existing test expectations and common usage patterns.
