consumer: sort fallback DML before flush (#5824)

[ti-chi-bot]

This is an automated cherry-pick of #5824

What problem does this PR solve?

Issue Number: close #5713

What is changed and how it works?

The consumer no longer drops fallback DML during append if the current message commit-ts is greater than global watermark. It keeps the DML in EventsGroup, then sorts and flushes it when a DDL or watermark arrives.

In the BAB case, if the consumer receives B first and later receives replayed A B, A is no longer ignored because its commitTs is smaller than the high watermark. It is buffered, then sorted into A B before writing.
