REVISION SUMMARY
  Anectodic evidence shows that ascending/descending regularly takes people longer to process than necessary. This patch implements more human-friendly sort oder descriptions, in particular:
  
  A-Z/Z-A for text
  Newest first/oldest-first for time
  Lowest first/highest first for rating
  smallest first/largest first for sizes
  
  If there is no string for a particular role defined it will fall back to Ascending/Descending.
  
  I'm aware that not every language uses A-Z. In this case the translator can pick any string that represents the concept of text sorting

TEST PLAN
  Sort view in various ways
