All dropdown lists should be in human alphabetical order #4595

Summary

All dropdown lists should be in human alphabetical order

Why

prevention of confusion

Details

The usual machine-based alphabetical order separates lower case and upper case. This is problematic for surnames (ex la Rue, de la Croix, van der Welt), but also if the banks are inconsistent in their entry of item names and other bank-entered choices.

Throughout the system, make any alphabetic orders alphabetic by lower case.

(the size of this is about 60 things that need to be looked at)

Hint: do look at filter_select and form.select or field.select

Criteria for completion

Difficulty-Intermediate is due to size.

NOTE -- Totally fine for this to be more than one pull request. It is good to have easy-to-review and deployable changes. We don't have to do it all in one go.
