Feature request: Sort sidebar folders alphabetically

[gjouret]

Problem

There is no way to sort sidebar folders alphabetically. The sidebar order is controlled exclusively by a priority integer in ProjectSettings (stored in NSUbiquitousKeyValueStore), which is only modifiable via drag-and-drop.

When folders are reorganized (renamed, merged, or newly created), the priority values become inconsistent — old folders retain their previous drag-and-drop positions while new folders default to priority 0. This results in a jumbled sidebar order with no way to fix it other than manually dragging every folder into place.

Current behavior (from source code)

Storage.getSidebarProjects() (Storage.swift:256-260) sorts by name first, then overrides with priority:

public func getSidebarProjects() -> [Project] {
    return projects
        .filter({ $0.isBookmark || $0.parent?.isDefault == true })
        .sorted(by: { $0.label.lowercased() < $1.label.lowercased() })
        .sorted(by: { $0.settings.priority < $1.settings.priority })
}

The per-folder "sort" setting in Project Settings only controls note sorting within a folder — it has no effect on folder order in the sidebar.

Requested behavior

Add a sidebar context menu option or preference to sort folders alphabetically by name, which would reset all ProjectSettings.priority values to 0 (letting the existing alphabetical tiebreaker take effect).

Alternatively, add a toggle between "Manual order" and "Alphabetical order" for the sidebar.
