Disable custom localized sort on author archives #157

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When the author archive was opened without a local, for example, https://wordpress.org/themes/author/automattic/, the themes are sorted from new to old, which is helpful. But if the page was opened with a local, for example, https://en-gb.wordpress.org/themes/author/automattic/, the themes are sorted differently (I'm not sure what the order is.)

wordpress.org en-gb.wordpress.org
wordpress org_themes_author_automattic_ en-gb wordpress org_themes_author_automattic_

A sort option would be nice, but let's make the experience the same fo all. If Google gives the URL with a local, I assume not a small number of people suffer this.

In general, the localized sites prioritize sites with translations, so when you're viewing an archive in a specific language, you can see first themes that are available in that language.

I think we can disable that for author archives though, chronological order makes sense for authors across locales.
