[ADD] sorting support in list views

* Fix sorting in DataSet.do_search_read (would not fix ordering of read results, yielding a semi-random order instead of the one returned by search)
* Add sort parameter support to ListView.fill()
* Improve handling of sort parameter on DataSetSearch
  - Queue up fields to sort on (most important last) by calling 'dataset.sort(fieldname)' repeatedly
  - Get back a sort string fit for sending to OpenERP (server) by calling 'dataset.sort()' (without arguments)
* Adds sorting on list view by clicking on headers
