Remove sort example from simple query language (236)

[ePaul]

The sort=id:desc example doesn't fit the "equality comparison for a logical property".

It also leads to confusion on how to indicate how the result should be sorted (rule 137 says sort=-id).

This replaces it with another "logical property", the age (which is often calculated from the birthday and current date).

(Triggered by an internal chat message.)

For sort order, 'asc' and 'dec' may make good sense. I am not sure whether we are curious about 'desc' to mean "decreasing". Is it a case here?

desc (for "descending") might make sense, but it doesn't fit into the query language rule (as it's not a filter – unless you are querying a list of queries or similar), and it also contradicts the earlier rule 137 about the + or - prefix (and we want to be consistent).
