External Sorter should sort in memory until it reach configured size, then spill to disk. It should provide following interface:
1. insertRow/insertRowBatch: will take an Iterator as input and insert rows from the iterator into the sorter.
2. getIterator: will return an iterator that iterates on sorted rows, the sorted row could come from memory or files
