	* @param unsortedRecords The array that needs to be sorted. This array must be in the typical
	* format that our arrays are in after retrieving database data (i.e. array of records).
	* @param sortKeys The record keys that we'll be sorting on.
	* If this is an array, multi-column sorting will be done.
	* @param sortDirections The direction to sort the columns.
	* If this is an array, it should match up with the sort_keys array.
	* @param sortTypes The type of sorting that should be done (SORT_NUMERIC, SORT_STRING, etc. )
