/**
 * Basic sort algorithm that has similar behavior to `Array.prototype.sort`
 * for null and undefined, but also allows sorting by an object property.
 *
 * @param {Mixed} `a` First value to compare.
 * @param {Mixed} `b` Second value to compare.
 * @param {String} `prop` Optional property to use when comparing objects. If specified must be a string.
 * @return {Number} Returns 1 when `a` should come after `b`, -1 when `a` should come before `b`, and 0 when `a` and `b` are equal.
