     * Sort the holder list.
     * The sorting of holders is done to make sure that
     * for every table alias that is both source of (one or more) holders
     * and target of another holder the "target" holder is listed
     * before the "source" holder(s).
     * Denoting a holder as a pair of source alias and target alias, that means:
     *
     * {t0, t1}, {t1, t2}, {t1, t3} or {t0, t1}, {t1, t3}, {t1, t2} is ok;
     * but
     * {t1, t2}, {t0, t1}, {t1, t3} or {t1, t2}, {t1, t3}, {t0, t1} should be reordered.
     *
     * To achieve this goal the method assigns an integer index to each table alias
     * used by holders (for instance t0 -> 0; t1 -> 1; t2 -> 2; t3 -> 3).
     *
     * Each holder assigned a list of integers corresponding to a sequence of aliases
     * that starts with the one, which no holder uses as its target alias,
     * possibly continues several times from source alias to target alias for some other holder (if exists),
     * and ends with the holder's target alias.
     *
     * {t0, t1} -> {0, 1};
     * {t1, t2} -> {0, 1, 2}
     * {t1, t3} -> {0, 1, 3}
     *
     * Sorting of holders uses comparison of these lists (see OuterJoinExpressionHolder.compareTo):
     *
     * {0, 1} < {0, 1, 2} < {0, 1, 3}
     * Therefore the holders will be ordered:
     * {t0, t1}, {t1, t2}, {t1, t3}
     *
     * More complex example:
     * {t0, t1}, {t1, t2}, {t2, t7}, {t7, t10}, {t1, t3}, {t4, t5}, {t5, t8}, {t8, t9}, {t5, t11}, {t4, t12}
     *
     * A holder may have additional target table(s):
     * Examples:
     * secondary SALARY table in Employee class;
     * LPROJECT table in LargeProject class (primary PROJECT table is inherited from Project class).
     * In that case each additional target alias should have an entry in targetAliasToHolders
     * so that the holder that uses the additional table as a source could be placed in correct order.
     * For instance:
     * holder1 has target alias t1 and additional target alias t2:
     * if the latter is ignored then holder2 = {t2, t3} could be placed ahead of holder1.
