This patchset got some attention in the PostGIS development channel, as it
is important to really enable the fast GiST build there for the end user.
The reviews are positive, it saves build time and performs as well as
original non-sorting build on tested workloads.

I believe this patch is an important addition to Postgres 15 and will make
a lot of GIS users happier.

Thanks,
Darafei.
