Sortability options for channels and categories

[slatinsky]

The problem is that DiscordChatExporter doesn't export channel order. So we have four options:

1. Sort alphabetically
2. Sort by createdAt (we can calculate that from channel id, because id is discord snowflake)
3. Create external script to export guild info and use that file to sort channels correctly
4. Sort by message count

I think option 3 sounds great, but maybe being able to re-sort the "default" DiscordChatExporter version is better? And might work in servers too?
Like, importing from json as it is, then being able to re-sort in the front end as user pleases. And being able to save that info for the next time the front end opens.
(I'm a total ignorant in programming yet, so I might be asking impossibles or very difficult things without noticing).

I implemented another option in the latest release 2.3.0 - sort them by message counts.
This way the most important channels stay on top.

The perfect solution would be the original order, but we don't have this information recorded in the exports.
