Tables: Fix invalid data in TableGetSortSpecs() when SpecsDirty flag is unset. (#4233)

Amend 4ce6bd8cf, but with usage of ImPool<> bug existed even before 4ce6bd8c. Would only materialize if user called (ableGetSortSpecs and used data without checking SpecsDirty.

@@ -43,6 +43,7 @@ Other Changes:
 - Tables: Added ImGuiTableColumnFlags_NoHeaderLabel to request TableHeadersRow() to not submit label for a column.
   Convenient for some small columns. Name will still appear in context menu. (#4206).
 - Tables: Fix columns order on TableSetupScrollFreeze() if previous data got frozen columns out of their section.
+- Tables: Fix invalid data in TableGetSortSpecs() when SpecsDirty flag is unset. (#4233)
 - Fixed printf-style format checks on non-MinGW flavors. (#4183, #3592)
 - Demo: Fixed requirement in 1.83 to link with imgui_demo.cpp if IMGUI_DISABLE_METRICS_WINDOW is not set. (#4171)
   Normally the right way to disable compiling the demo is to set IMGUI_DISABLE_DEMO_WINDOWS, but we want to avoid
