sort results in a way that brings the "most up-to-date package" to the top #273

consider the following search results

library version upload-data
binfile 0.1~git20181005 2018-10-04
binfile 0.1~git20151118 2015-11-18
zexy 2.4.1 2022-02-02
zexy 2.4.0 2022-01-18
zexy 2.3.1 2020-05-29

we can sort by "version" (or date), but that leaves the general order of libraries intact (which sorts binfile with the last release 4 years ago before zexy that had a release this year.

here's an idea: double click the column-header would sort by identifier, but also re-order the libraries themselves (so that the first entry within a node defines the overall order)
