Description
The UserCustomField order_statement returns wrong output:
Eg:
For a user custom field named "Employee Code" (type string) the order statement is returned as follows:
>> UserCustomField.find_by_name("Employee Code").order_statement
=> "COALESCE((SELECT cv_sort.value FROM custom_values cv_sort WHERE cv_sort.customized_type='User' AND cv_sort.customized_id=users.id AND cv_sort.custom_field_id=1 LIMIT 1), '')"
Herein the value of customized_type is User, whereas in the actual database table, i.e. custom_values table, the value of customized_type for UserCustomFields is Principal (which is a superclass of User class).
For this reason, the `UserCustomField.find_by_name("Employee Code").order_statement` gives a statement which always returns empty output when used in a query.
The correct value of `UserCustomField.find_by_name("Employee Code").order_statement` should be:
>> UserCustomField.find_by_name("Employee Code").order_statement
=> "COALESCE((SELECT cv_sort.value FROM custom_values cv_sort WHERE cv_sort.customized_type='Principal' AND cv_sort.customized_id=users.id AND cv_sort.custom_field_id=1 LIMIT 1), '')"

Rails stores the base class type (Principal) instead of the actual class type (User).

Maybe you can try to replace self.class.customized_class.name with self.class.customized_class.base_class.name?

Should be fixed with r9880, thanks for the report.
I don't know if it's useful to write a test since this statement is not used in Redmine code to query User model nor where I should write it?
