Is the performance regression here measurable? If clients are re-sorting themselves, then this I think this can only add a small constant factor, and I suspect it's dwarfed by serialization/parsing.

You can gather performance traces with `clangd -trace ~/trace.json`, and view the RPCs in chrome's `chrome://tracing` UI. If you have cases where there's a large difference before/after this patch, I'd definitely like to fix that.
