[Orgmode] [PATCH 4/5] Add a new sort option, which sorts items by todo keyword

[James TD Smith]

This is a somewhat simple implementation which just uses the position of the
keyword in org-todo-keywords-1, so if you have multiple sequences containing the
same todo keyword you may not get the ordering you expect.
