> ORDER BY ALL: when ORDER BY ALL appears with no order items, the query sorts 
> by every expression in the SELECT clause, in select-list order. An optional 
> trailing ASC/DESC and NULLS FIRST/LAST applies to all keys.
> Example:
>   SELECT name, hire_date
>   FROM emp
>   ORDER BY ALL;                  -- equivalent to ORDER BY name, hire_date
>   SELECT name, hire_date
>   FROM emp
>   ORDER BY ALL DESC NULLS LAST;  -- direction applies to every key
> Motivation: keeps the ORDER BY in sync with the SELECT list automatically and 
> removes boilerplate when sorting by every projected column. It is an emerging 
> convergence across warehouse dialects (DuckDB, Databricks, Snowflake, Spark, 
> Trino), and a natural companion to GROUP BY ALL (CALCITE-7594).
> Compatibility: purely additive. ORDER BY ALL does not parse today, so 
> enabling it cannot change the meaning of any existing query. Unlike GROUP BY, 
> ALL has no existing meaning after ORDER BY, so there is no set-quantifier 
> collision.
> Proposed behaviour:
> - ALL must stand alone (no trailing order items).
> - The parser emits a marker that the validator expands into the SELECT 
> expressions during validateOrderList, before the base validation runs, so the 
> converter/optimizer never see a marker.
> - SELECT * with ORDER BY ALL is rejected with a clear error for now (the star 
> is not expanded at validation time); may be revisited later.
> Scope:
> - ORDER BY ALL only. Positional ORDER BY <ordinal> is already supported via 
> SqlConformance.isSortByOrdinal and is out of scope.
> A working prototype (parser + validator + tests + reference docs) is ready. 
> PR will be up.
> A discussion will be raised on [email protected].
