Summary:
This PR addresses issue #3865 and implements the following approach to fix it:
- adds `MergeContext::GetOperandsDirectionForward` and `MergeContext::GetOperandsDirectionBackward` to query merge operands in a specific order
- `MergeContext::GetOperands` becomes a shortcut for `MergeContext::GetOperandsDirectionForward`
- pass `MergeContext::GetOperandsDirectionBackward` to `MergeOperator::ShouldMerge` and document the order
