Description
Describe the solution you'd like
Nowadays, after adding new server group in the object explorer there is no way to change its display order. It would be nice to have something like a drag-and-drop functionality to reorder list items.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternatively, server groups could be sorted in alphabetical order. Currently, only newly added server groups are placed alphabetically, but renaming existing ones does not rearrange the structure. (UPD: it does rearrange the structure, but only after using View->Reload option or restarting the whole pgadmin app)

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the object explorer's server-group rendering and ordering logic, then check how renaming and View→Reload affect the order. Done should mean users can reorder groups, or that renaming updates the displayed order immediately, with the behavior covered by an appropriate test.
