*Buffer List* column headers don't sort unless select buffer first

In any buffer, for example, *scratch*, do this: `C-x C-b'.

Click any of the *Buffer List* header-line column headers. The column is not
sorted. You must first select the *Buffer List* buffer first, by, say,
clicking in its window. Then, column sorting works.

Command buffer-menu code shows that it calls `switch-to-buffer'.
However, the *Buffer List* buffer is displayed in a new window, and it
is not selected: C-x C-b, then M-: (current-buffer) shows that the
current buffer remains the original buffer (e.g. *scratch*).

The *Buffer List* buffer should be selected when you do C-x C-b, so that
column sorting works as advertised (e.g. by the help tooltips).
