> Followup from LUCENE-7052: This removes the legacy, deprecated 
> getUTF8SortedAsUTF16Comparator() in the BytesRef class. I know originally we 
> added the different comparators to be able to allow the index term dict to be 
> sorted in different order. This never proved to be useful, as many Lucene 
> queries rely on the default order. The only codec that used another byte 
> order internally was the Lucene 3 one (but it used the unicode spaghetti 
> algorithm to reorder its term enums at runtime).
> This patch also removes the BytesRef-Comparator completely and just 
> implements compareTo. So all code can rely on natural ordering.
> This patch also cleans up other usages of natural order comparators, e.g. in 
> ArrayUtil, because Java 8 natively provides a comparator.
