Description
Right now, the output of JCMD-DIFF doesn't sort any value. The request here is to sort the values by the highest difference in the oldValue and the newValue. Also, group by the same class-name.
This will ensure that the leads/reviewers are always looking at the highest difference from the same class, and take quick decisions.
