When using IMAP and imap_check_subscribed, the server reports the
dirs in a random order.
This patch introduces a new option, sidebar_sort. Which, when it is
set, sorts the dirs in the sidebar alphabetically.

I hope, it's usefull for someone ;)

PS: This has to be applied ontop of my sidebar-dotted patch, but it
should be easy to adopt it to a vanilla mutt.
