New features

• PR #1931
  • Added a sort control component to layouts:
    • Now the list of sortable properties is a static list of 'Sortable' managed properties in the search schema. Custom properties or RefinableXXX have to be entered manually.
    • Updated the Details List sort behavior. Now there is no static sorting anymore. The field used to sort a column comes from the data source sort settings configuration and we clearly make the distinction between display value and sort value in the configuration.
• PR #1873 - Included new function for Handlebars Helper.
