Review Comment:
   `lexsort_to_indices` already returns only `fetch` indices per batch, this is 
used to `take` that nr. of indices per batch, throwing away the rest of the 
rows.
   
    The remaining optimization I think is tweaking `SortPreservingMergeStream` 
to only maintain `fetch` records in the heap instead of all `fetch` top records 
for each batch in the partition as mentioned here 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/3516#issuecomment-1250807415. 
After this I think we have a full TopK implementation that only needs to keep  
n number of rows in memory (per partition).
   
   I would like to do this in a separate PR.
