sort for object stream (enhancement)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I've written a sort.py to go in hotwire/builtins/  It takes the name of
properties to sort by, and an optional -r flag.  (Also needs a line in
hotwire/builtin.py )

Examples include

proc -a | sort owner_name cmd

ls | sort mimetype | head

Cool, thanks.  I did a few small tweaks on this patch:

* SortKey inherits from object and calls superclass constructor, I try to be
consistent on this
* can just say list(context.args) rather than doing list.append in loop
* added a test
* added it to builtin.py to be loaded

Cool.  Just wondering, did you notice the tail builtin I appended to issue 156 
?  At
the time I was unsure about a couple of things (noted there) but as I've learnt 
more
python I think it is reasonable.  Should probably say that there really ...
