/**
 * Creates an array of elements, sorted in ascending order by the results of
 * running each element in a collection through `iteratee`. This method performs
 * a stable sort, that is, it preserves the original sort order of equal elements.
 * The `iteratee` is bound to `thisArg` and invoked with three arguments:
 * (value, index|key, collection).
 *
 * If a property name is provided for `iteratee` the created `_.property`
 * style callback returns the property value of the given element.
 *
 * If a value is also provided for `thisArg` the created `_.matchesProperty`
 * style callback returns `true` for elements that have a matching property
 * value, else `false`.
 *
 * If an object is provided for `iteratee` the created `_.matches` style
 * callback returns `true` for elements that have the properties of the given
 * object, else `false`.
 *
 * @static
 * @memberOf _
 * @category Collection
 * @param {Array|Object|string} collection The collection to iterate over.
 * @param {Function|Object|string} [iteratee=_.identity] The function invoked
 *  per iteration.
 * @param {*} [thisArg] The `this` binding of `iteratee`.
 * @returns {Array} Returns the new sorted array.
 * @example
 *
 * _.sortBy([1, 2, 3], function(n) {
 *   return Math.sin(n);
 * });
 * // => [3, 1, 2]
 *
 * _.sortBy([1, 2, 3], function(n) {
 *   return this.sin(n);
 * }, Math);
 * // => [3, 1, 2]
 *
 * var users = [
 *   { 'user': 'fred' },
 *   { 'user': 'pebbles' },
 *   { 'user': 'barney' }
 * ];
 *
 * // using the `_.property` callback shorthand
 * _.pluck(_.sortBy(users, 'user'), 'user');
 * // => ['barney', 'fred', 'pebbles']
