Description
Goals:
- stable for both .Net 4.6.2 and .Net 7.0
- ignore if an identifier is wrapper in single quotes. (the escaping characters for Power Fx)
This was changed in #2442. Before, we did sort (and ignore the single quotes); and 2442 changed to just a straightup ordinal sort to deal with 1, but that broke 2.

Research direction
Start by reviewing change #2442 and locating the IntelliSense string-sorting implementation and its tests. Verify behavior on .NET 4.6.2 and .NET 7.0, including identifiers wrapped in single quotes; done means sorting is deterministic while preserving the quoted-identifier handling.
