Description
We have most local imports in relative format, but we have some absolute imports that should be grouped together with them.
I have added the packages with "--known-local-folder". The absolute imports we wanted in LOCALFOLDER section did move as intended, but sorted after the relative imports:
from ..foo import bar
from .hoge import piyo
from some_package.foo import baz
We’d rather want to have absolute imports above relative imports within the section:
from some_package.foo import baz
from ..foo import bar
from .hoge import piyo
Is there any option to achieve above result?

Start by tracing the --known-local-folder option and the import sorting logic that orders absolute and relative imports within the LOCALFOLDER section. Confirm the expected ordering with the examples in this issue and add or update coverage for both orderings before considering the change done.
