find_package: Optionally sort globbed directories in a meaningful order
Add `CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_SORT_{ORDER,DIRECTION}` variables to specify
sort order and direction.
When multiple package with the same name have been found in the same
location sorting option can be used to force a specific version to be
loaded (e.g. libA_1.12.0 instead of libA_1.1.0). Currently sorting by
NAME and by NATURAL order have been implemented.
Natural ordering makes use of the `strverscmp(3)` ordering.
