Preserve sys__id on copy partial table (#1682)

* fixing copy partial table

* refactor

* fixed test

* reversed default of preserve_sys_ids and fixing tests

* removed flag

* preserving sys___id if there is no ordering

* removed preserve_sys_id

* fixing tests

* added test with group by in chain

* returned to flag based approach for preserving sys ids
