ResizableFloatArray PMC does not have a test for sort method

Similar to #925

Hi leto,

there doesn't seem to be a sort() method in ResizableFloatArray. Should a method be added?

Cheers,

Issue #925 claims that a sort() method was added to FixedFloatArray
(which would be inherited by ResizableFloatArray),
but I can't find a sort method for either FixedFloatArray or
ResizableFloatArray in the master branch.

At any rate, I would expect any sort() method for ResizableFloatArray
to come from FixedFloatArray, in the same way that ResizablePMCArray
and ResizableIntegerArray inherit sort() from their "fixed" base classes.

(FWIW, the only sort method that Rakudo currently makes use of
is the one in ResizablePMCArray, which is inherited from
FixedPMCArray. And we'll be largely eliminating the use of
ResizablePMCArray for this soon.)

Looks like I thought I merged the ffa_sort branch, but I was mistaken. Just fixed that in d3bd99f

With that, the RFA PMC should inherit the sort method, but I am not quite sure it will actually work. In any case, tests are very much appreciated.
