Pull request overview

This PR introduces a three-state sorting cycle for Taipy tables, allowing users to transition between unsorted, ascending, and descending states. Previously, once sorting was applied, users could only toggle between ascending and descending until the page was refreshed.

Key Changes:

• Modified sorting click handler to cycle through: unsorted → ascending → descending → unsorted
• Applied the same logic to both PaginatedTable and AutoLoadingTable components
• Added unit test coverage for PaginatedTable to verify the three-state sorting behavior
