Review Comment:
   ~Why does this signature need to change? The new signature requires an 
allocation / `clone` of a Vec where the previous one didn't and thus this seems 
to change the API for the worse.~
   
   Update: this is explained in the PR description:
   
   > This functionality requires us to calculate output_ordering dynamically. 
For this reason, this PR accompanies the api change from fn 
output_ordering(&self) -> Option<&[PhysicalSortExpr]> to fn 
output_ordering(&self) -> Option<Vec<PhysicalSortExpr>>. To support dynamic 
calculation of the output ordering. See the corresponding 
https://github.com/synnada-ai/arrow-datafusion/pull/78 for more information.
   
   The linked PR 
https://github.com/synnada-ai/arrow-datafusion/pull/78#issue-1657633081 says 
that the issue is related to the AggregateExec changing during optimization, 
which I don't understand -- if the input changes then a new AggregateExec is 
also created
