Allow custom sorting of mailboxes for mbnames

Browse Source 
mutt-sidebar and, probably, other MUA show mailboxes in the order
they are listed in the file written by mbnames.  Therefore, to allow
customization of the order with which mailboxes are listed, introduce
the new 'sort_keyfunc' directive in the [mbnames] section.

'sort_keyfunc' must be a function that will be called once for each
mailbox.  It must accept the only argument -- a dict with 2 items,
'accountname' and 'foldername', and should return an object that
will be used as the sorting key for each mailbox.

Default key function returns (d['accountname'], d['foldername']),
thus sorting by account name and then by the folder name.

# Note that this filter can be used only to further restrict mbnames
# to a subset of folders that pass the account's folderfilter.
#
#
# You can customize the order in which mailbox names are listed in the
# generated file by specifying a sort_keyfunc, which takes a single
# dict argument containing keys 'accountname' and 'foldername'. This
# function will be called once for each mailbox, and should return a
# suitable sort key that defines this mailbox' position in the custom
# ordering.
#
# This is useful with e.g. Mutt-sidebar, which uses the mailbox order
# from the generated file when listing mailboxes in the sidebar.
#
# Default setting is
# sort_keyfunc = lambda d: (d['accountname'], d['foldername'])
