Lets make this `spark.sql.planner.sortMergeJoin` and put it below with the
other one for external sort. I say this as there is nothing "automatic" about
it based on statistics (like with our broadcast support) and if testing shows
this has good performance we might just get rid of the option completely and
have it always on.
