Sort remote branches

[Jayphen]

I often like to check out branches that my colleagues are working on to give feedback or assist. At the moment, it seems that the Remotes tab sorts all branches alphabetically, which is only useful if you know the name of the branch you're seeking.

It would be great to have some sorting options here - created, last modified, alpha for example.

As a user, I think I will change the sort criteria often. Sometimes I would want to checkout a release branch (where sort by name makes the most sense) while other time I may want to check other's PR (where sort by last modified makes sense).

I think the sort option should have an key-binding to it instead of being a config option.

We've implemented sorting for local branches now so it should be pretty easy to copy what we're doing there and apply it to the remote branches view too. I'll put a 'good first issue' label on this. Let me know if either of you are up for implementing this @Jayphen @Holi0317

Erm, sorting remote branches was implemented in #3171. 😄

Ah yes, the easiest feature to implement is the one that's already implemented haha. Good work everyone.
