Description

Part of #629.

Add a deterministic ClickBench dataset variant whose Parquet data is globally sorted by an explicitly documented key (or key sequence). This should make physical data ordering a controlled benchmark dimension, separate from the existing ClickBench layout.

Scope:

  • Add the Rust preparation code and gen-clickbench-sorted.sh generation entry point.
  • Write the dataset to a distinct slash-style dataset path, such as testdata/clickbench-sorted/<variant>.

For a more detailed explanation of how to wire this up, see https://github.com/datafusion-contrib/datafusion-distributed/issues/629

Research direction

Start by reading issue #629 and tracing the existing ClickBench dataset generation flow. Add the Rust preparation code and the gen-clickbench-sorted.sh entry point, writing a distinct dataset under testdata/clickbench-sorted/. Done means the dataset is deterministic, globally sorted by an explicitly documented key or key sequence, and separate from the existing ClickBench layout.
