fix(web): sort folders

[C-Otto]

fixes #13145

It's better to handle this in the query itself rather than in the client. #12214 is quite old and needs a rebase, but it handles sorting among other things.

That won't work because Object.keys and Object.entries are used, which don't retain the order of the items passed in. There's already a "sort" operation in the existing web code, which doesn't work for this reason. Sorting in the backend has the same effect: none.

I'm pretty sure it did work at the time that I wrote it. It's possible that the current client code does things that would make it behave differently, though.

As you can see in the linked issue's screenshots, there currently is no sorting.

Hello, have you tested with the test case of the following folder name or tag name to see if they are sorted naturally?

1-folder
2-folder
11-folder
12-folder

So, it looks like the natural order isn't working here. Did it sort in natural order before the changes?

[C-Otto]

It works, as shown on the screenshot? What kind of "natural order" do you think of? Before, there was no sorting at all, just random.

[alextran1502]

So I think natural order as in

1 -> 2 -> 11 -> 12

In the screenshot it is showing

1 -> 11 -> 2 -> 12

We're dealing with strings here, though. Different game, different rules :)
