Which issue does this PR close?

Related to #7794

Rationale for this change

While debugging #7794 (which I think is a bad plan) the lack of Sort exprs caused very strange behavior that made it harder to debug.

Specifically, the merge code ended up passing bad indices to interleave which resulted in a panic far away from the source of the problem.

What changes are included in this PR?

  1. Return an internal error if no sort exprs are passed to streaming_merge
  2. Assert in RowCursor that there is at least one row
  3. Add some docs

Are these changes tested?

Yes by existing tests

Are there any user-facing changes?

No, only easier to debug failures
