I got a model with the number field rank:
static fields() { return { ID: this.string(''), rank: this.number(0), }

When using orderBy until 0.34.x the query result was correctly sorted:

TestModel.query().orderBy('rank').get();

sorted the data in the correct numerical order: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12,...

with the update to 0.35.x the number field is sorted alphabetically: 1, 10, 11, 12, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,..

I already took a look at the changes but sadly could not find the source of this bug.
