feat: adds custom sort function feature flag for table widget (#39649)
## Description
### Custom Sort Function for Table Widget

This PR introduces a new custom sort function feature for the Table
Widget, allowing users to define their own sorting logic for table data.

**Feature Flag Implementation**
- Added a new feature flag `release_table_custom_sort_function_enabled`
to control the availability of this feature
- Set the default value to `false` to allow for controlled rollout

**Table Widget Updates**
- Added `customSortFunction` property to the TableWidgetV2 props
interface
- Updated property configuration to include the custom sort function
control
- Added helper text and placeholder to guide users on proper
implementation
- Implemented visibility condition based on the feature flag and
sortable state

**Control Updates**
- Enhanced `TableCustomSortControl` to support the new custom sorting
logic
- Improved error handling in the sort function implementation
- Updated the binding structure to provide access to original data with
`original_` prefix
- Modified the function signature to use `(tableData, column, order)`
parameters

**Testing**
- Updated test cases to verify the extraction and computation of custom
sort expressions
- Implemented round-trip testing to ensure proper function parsing and
generation
- Added tests for edge cases like empty strings and non-matching formats

This feature enables users to implement complex sorting logic beyond the
default column-based sorting, such as multi-column sorting, custom
collation, or business-specific ordering rules.
