Feature request: Order task tags alphabetically

[TristanCottam]

@tristan-cottam, the user should be able to choose how to order them.

But this order should be consistent across tasks, unlike the "custom" (chronological) sorting we have now. It should be a global setting.

a task's tags should always be ordered alphabetically

@tristan-cottam, I agree, but a bit like in any templating system, it would be nice to have a global default, but be able to temporarily override that.

@RokeJulianLockhart The original reason for me to make this feature request is that the task manager I use (Tasks.org) sorts tasks alphabetically, and doesn't record anything about their order. I was interested in enhancing both the UI and compatibility with external client[s].

Because of the latter, I would rather focus this feature request on not recording the order of a task's tags, and possibly adding a setting to set their global order, at least for now.

@tristan-cottam, I use the same client. Thank you for this.
