This is a complex task. The goal is to regorganize albumtreeview class
content by album date set in database.

https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/digikam/album/albumtreeview.h

In this class you will find models to design album tree. Code must be add
in this class to reorganize album contents by date.

Look in class PAlbum to see date properties. I supose that you want only
sort Physical Albums by date.
