[ANN] SortingLab.jl - fast sorting algorithms for strings and CategoricalArrays

There is a thread about improving the sort API.

I tried to incorporate my sorting algorithm into SortingAlgorithms.jl but I found that there is a fundamental issue with how base dispatches on the sorting data. What I wrote is difficult to understand and that is because the way the dispatch works is quite complicated and can’t be summarises and understood easily IMO.

I hope there is progress soon on the API and then we can incorporate.
