Description
-------

This commit replaces the sorter's flat list of clients with a tree; the
tree represents the hierarchical relationship between sorter clients.
Each node in the tree contains a vector of pointers to child nodes. The
tree might contain nodes that do not correspond directly to sorter
clients. For example, adding clients "a/b" and "c/d" results in the
following tree:

root
 -> a
   -> b
 -> c
   -> d

The `sort` member function still only returns one result for each active
client in the sorter. This is implemented by ensuring that each sorter
client is associated with a leaf node in the tree. Note that it is
possible for a leaf node to be transformed into an internal node by a
subsequent insertion; to handle this case, we "implicitly" create an
extra child node, which maintains the invariant that each client has a
leaf node. For example, if the client "a/b/x" is added to the tree
above, the result is:

root
 -> a
   -> b
     -> .
     -> x
 -> c
   -> d

The "." leaf node holds the allocation that has been made to the "a/b"
client itself; the "a/b" node holds the sum of all the allocations that
have been made to the subtree rooted at "a/b", which also includes
"a/b/x".

This commit also introduces a new approach to sorting: rather than
keeping an `std::set` of sorter clients, we now keep a tree of
`std::vector`, which is sorted explicitly via `std::sort`. The previous
implementation tried to optimize the sorting process by updating the
sort order incrementally when a single sorter client was updated; this
commit removes that optimization, and instead re-sorts the entire tree
whenever the sort order is changed.

Re-introducing a version of this optimization would make sense in the
future (MESOS-7390), but benchmarking suggests that this commit results
in a net improvement in sorter performance anyway. The sorter perf
improvement is likely due to the introduction of a secondary hashmap
that allows the leaf node associated with a tree path to be find
efficiently; the previous implementation required a linear scan of a
`std::set`.
