Description of problem:
In the API the order option is working. The documented sort hash is not working. There are undocumented sort_by and sort_order that are working instead.

Not working sort hash:

# curl -K /opt/hoici/etc/curl-admin.conf -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"per_page":"9999","sort":{"by":"name","order":"desc"}}' -XGET https://localhost/katello/api/v2/organizations/4/products | jq . | tail -n10
  "sort": {
    "order": null,
    "by": null
  },
  "search": null,
  "per_page": "9999",
  "page": 1,
  "subtotal": 19,
  "total": 19
}

Working order:

# curl -K /opt/hoici/etc/curl-admin.conf -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"per_page":"9999","order":"name desc"}' -XGET https://localhost/katello/api/v2/organizations/4/products | jq . | tail -n10
  "sort": {
    "order": "desc",
    "by": "name" 
  },
  "search": null,
  "per_page": "9999",
  "page": 1,
  "subtotal": 19,
  "total": 19
}

Working sort_by and sort_order:

# curl -K /opt/hoici/etc/curl-admin.conf -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"per_page":"9999","sort_by":"name","sort_order":"desc"}' -XGET https://localhost/katello/api/v2/organizations/4/products | jq . | tail -n 10
  "sort": {
    "order": "desc",
    "by": "name" 
  },
  "search": null,
  "per_page": "9999",
  "page": 1,
  "subtotal": 19,
  "total": 19
}

Expected results:
Consistent API functionality and documentation for sorting the results
