GH-48954: [C++] Add test for null-type dictionary sorting and clarify XXX comment

[HyukjinKwon]

Rationale for this change

Null-type dictionaries (e.g., dictionary(int8(), null())) are valid Arrow constructs supported from day one, but the sorting code had an uncertain XXX Should this support Type::NA? comment. We should explicitly support and test this because other functions already support this:

import pyarrow as pa
import pyarrow.compute as pc

pc.array_sort_indices(pa.array([None, None, None, None], type=pa.int32()))
# [0, 1, 2, 3]
pc.array_sort_indices(pa.DictionaryArray.from_arrays(
    indices=pa.array([None, None, None, None], type=pa.int8()),
    dictionary=pa.array([], type=pa.null())
))
# [0, 1, 2, 3]

I believe it does not make sense to specifically disallow this in dictionaries at this point.
