    GH-36176: [C++] Fix regression for single-key Table sorting (#36179)
    
    
    
    ### Rationale for this change

    ### What changes are included in this PR?
    
    Re-implements a branch in the `Table` sorter that defers to the 
`ChunkedArray` sorter for single sort keys.
    
    ### Are these changes tested?
    
    Covered by existing tests.
    
    ### Are there any user-facing changes?
    
    No.
