NOTE! Set the emptyTo selector below:

top - sort empty table cells to the top.
bottom - sort empty table cells to the bottom.
none or zero - sort empty table cells as if the cell has the value equal to zero.
Individual columns can be modified by adding the following, set in order of priority:
- jQuery data data-empty="top".
- metadata class="{ empty: 'top'}". This requires the metadata plugin.
- headers option headers : { 0 : { empty : 'top' } }.
- header class name class="empty-top".
- Overall emptyTo option.
emptyToBottom option was added in v2.1.11, then replaced by the emptyTo option in v2.1.16.
