Add model and serd-sort utility
With all the new functionality, the complexity of the serd-pipe command-line interface is starting to push the limits of available flags. So, instead of grafting on further options to control a model, this commit adds a new tool, serd-sort, which acts somewhat like a stripped-down serd-pipe that stores statements in a model in memory. This keeps the complexity (including the user-facing complexity) of any one tool down, since other more focused tools can be used for streaming tasks in a pipeline. In other words, abandon Swissarmyknifeism, take a page from the Unix philosophy, and try to expose the model functionality to the command-line in a dedicated focused tool. The model implementation is tested by using this tool to run a subset of the usual test suites, and a special suite to test statement sorting.
