Add TypeScript types for auth

**Feature request**
It would be great to have sorting for controllers.

**Use case**
Many users need this functionality for production deployments.

**Implementation idea**
Add a new config option `enable_sorting` with default `false`.

Start by reconciling the title's TypeScript auth scope with the body’s request for controller sorting. Locate the controller configuration entry point and existing config tests, then determine how the proposed enable_sorting option should affect production deployments. Done means the intended scope is resolved and the behavior is covered by tests.
