Feature Description

Currently the /repos/{orga}/{repo}/pulls endpoint supports the following sort options:

• oldest
• recentupdate
• leastupdate
• mostcomment
• leastcomment
• priority

I'm trying to get a list of PRs in the order they've been merged, from most recent to oldest.
Since the repository has a lot of PRs and I only want to collect PRs since a certain date (to generate a changelog), the API is called with pagination and the cancellaction condition for pagination is "any merged_at <= certain date".

The problem with my behavior currently is, that this stops at pulls that have been merged a long time ago but have been updated somehow (e.g. someone wrote a comment).
If I remove the recentupdate sort criteria, then I could miss old PRs that got merged later.

For performance reasons I can't read all PRs from the repository, even with state closed.

To support my use case, it would be great to have a sort type recentmerged, or something similar, which returns all PRs in the opposite order they've been merged (newest to oldest).

If I oversee a combination of options which would mimic this, I'd appreciate a hint to accomplish my use case :-)
