Add a sort option to the tracks list page

closes #26

Waiting for EbbLabs/python-tidal#328 to be merged, so the sort feature can actually be implemented

It has been merged now :3

I saw that indeed! I'll have to check with nila to see how he implemented it (I'm too lazy to read the changes 🤣)

Expect new commits this weekend-ish

I've looked into this a bit myself and have made a small tweak on my own fork which sorts your favorited tracks by last added (see changes here: master...darius-it:high-tide:master).

Here are my insights in case they are of any help:

• Obviously had to bump the tidalapi package to the latest version, but I've noticed that the home page seems to be broken after updating the package. Seems to be related to some changes to the tidalapi library, but I wasn't able to pin down the exact issue yet.
• The basic usage of filters is obvious, to the methods like favorites.tracks() you have to add a parameter for the order and optionally if it's ascending or descending (all options can be found in the tidalapi code/PR that added the filters).
• Unfortunately I'm not very experienced with GTK and the overall architecture of the app, so I wasn't able to further implement a full filter feature. The tricky part seems to be that when opening the collections page, all favorites (tracks, playlists, etc.) are fetched once and remain static afterwards, and I was unsure how to handle changing the filters. A naive way would be to just override the page contents and calling the appropriate functions (such as user.favorites.tracks(order = ...)) directly from the pages themselves, but I feel like there must be a nicer way to go about this.

If there's any other way I can help, feel free to let me know.

Update: also added an initial experimental implementation of filters for favorite tracks to my fork, but especially the UI is quite janky (I have no clue what I'm doing with the GTK stuff, just tried to make it work somehow haha).
Seems like I also broke track playback, so you're probably better off only using my code as a very rough reference 😅

Only thing missing for me to fully migrate ;p

bump @drafolin :3

see #26 (comment).

My studies are taking way more time than i could've expected, and this project is not at the top of the list of my priorities. I'll let you all know if/when this improves.

In the meantime feel free to try and hack your way around my pr!
