- Snapshot cursors imply on ordering on '__name__', if not already
present. Implied ordering is added at the end of the list, matching
the direction of the prior entry ('ASCENDING' if none exist).
- Snapshots copy their document reference into the '__name__' field
of their document values.
- Disallow use of snapshots from foreign collections as query cursors.
- In a query with one or more 'where' clauses using ordering operators,
and including a snapshot cursor, we must add ordering on the field(s)
used (IFF the field is not already in the query's 'order_by').
Closes #6665.
