deprecate order_by parameter on mapper

Issue #3394 resolved
Mike Bayer repo owner created an issue

This is a little used parameter with very little impact on current code, however as per #3223 there are edge cases that are not worth supporting. Deprecation here would likely be indefinite but new or currently unworking use cases would remain unsupported.

    Deprecate Mapper.order_by

    This is an old parameter no longer relevant to how SQLAlchemy works, once the Query object was introduced. By deprecating it we establish that we aren't supporting non-working use cases and that we encourage applications to move off of the use of this parameter.
