Use similar sorting in kernel filter and selection dialogs #8051

Testing #7373 by following #8032

Items in the kernel filter dialog are sorted alphabetically, while kernels in the selection dialog are split into categories. I was not expecting 2 different ways of sorting kernels, and sorting them alphabetically also means that Python 2.7 will be higher in the list compared to Python 3:

Agreed, we decided not to bother with sorting and grouping in kernle filter (even though its different in 3 places, kernel picker, python interpreter pickre & this) We decided to leave it as is, as this is more for pro/advanced users.
