Better name / alias for fct_reorder2()

[jennybc]

I'm a huge fan of fct_reorder2(), for the reasons highlighted here:

If you make a line plot, make the legend order match some notion of the data order (or use direct labelling). Linked gist shows how to do this in #rstats with forcats::fct_reorder2().https://t.co/1IHbG7wIG8 pic.twitter.com/hadqsmfLO6

Maybe the under-appreciation for fct_reorder2() is partially due to its name? It doesn't really evoke what the function does.

I don't have a great alternative but something along the lines of fct_reorder_for_legend()?

Agreed, and I believe the names of the functions fct_relevel, fct_recode, fct_reorder all need some re-consideration. I discussed it in: #269

If it helps, you can think of the 2d as "2d"
