Description
Right now we're just using naive standard sorting. We would like to sort correctly similar to FieldWorks. This issue does not track new sorting options, but does include custom sorting via the writing system config that fieldworks supports.
Todo
- add sort data to WritingSystem model in miniLcm
- change sorting to utilize ICU based on the WsId being sorted by
- sorting tests, there's probably some in Lcm or somewhere else to start from.

Research direction
Start with the WritingSystem model in miniLcm and inspect any existing sorting tests in Lcm. Trace how WsId is used during sorting and how writing system configuration is represented. Done means writing system sort data is stored, sorting uses ICU for the selected WsId, and coverage is added for the supported behavior.
