Index full sortkey field in secondary index

Browse Source 
Using the sort key of the last element for pagination only works as
long as every sort key is unique. This is true for the general
definition of this field in the Change object, which includes the
unique change ID at the end of the hex string. Previously, we were
incorrectly truncating the change ID off, resulting in many changes in
the same sort key bucket and thus broken pagination.

Having two different definitions of sort key in the same running
server makes it a bit ugly to handle SortKeyPredicates, since the
definition of min/max value is now schema dependent, but at least we
can keep the same field name.

Don't @Deprecate the new SORTKEY field. We were originally hoping to
remove this field and depend only on the UPDATED field (with the
change ID as tiebreaker), but as long as this field is used for
pagination, we have to keep it around. This is because we can't be
sure a secondary index will be able to express a query like "(field X,
field Y) > (N, M)" to allow us to restart a query in the middle of an
UPDATED bucket. We may still decide to scrap the current pagination
system but that will probably not happen until we kill the SQL index
code.
