    we need at least two more tests here:
    - test for range partitioning with key selector and order
    - test for range partitioning with a nested key

>          Components: DataSet API

> {{DataSet.partitionByRange()}} does not allow to specify the sort order of 
> fields. This is fine if range partitioning is used to reduce skewed 
> partitioning. 
> However, it is not sufficient if range partitioning is used to sort a data 
> set in parallel. 
> Since {{DataSet.partitionByRange()}} is {{@Public}} API and cannot be easily 
> changed, I propose to add a method {{withOrders(Order... orders)}} to 
> {{PartitionOperator}}. The method should throw an exception if the 
> partitioning method of {{PartitionOperator}} is not range partitioning.
