ensure python versions are sorted

[0x00b1]

We may want to add a build step to automatically populate SUPPORTED_PYTHON_VERSIONS.

We will need to provide a custom comparison function if we want to non-uniform version numbers (e.g. 3 and 3.9.5).

Could someone link the issue? I want to reproduce to ensure the issue is actually fixed. 😆

@0x00b1 I think the order is messed up because we're using Object.entries() in the React component. The array SUPPORTED_PYTHON_VERSIONS is technically already sorted, but the order of Object.entries() is not guaranteed:

napari-hub/client/src/components/PluginSearch/PluginFilterByForm.tsx

Lines 67 to 74 in 75e867e

	filters={Object.entries(section.state ?? {}).map(
	([key, enabled]: [string, boolean]) => ({
	enabled,
	label: SECTION_LABELS[key] ?? key,
	setEnabled: (nextEnabled: boolean) =>
	section.setState?.({ [key]: nextEnabled }),
	}),
	)}

Nice! Thanks for fixing :)

@0x00b1 This PR needs some work. See @codemonkey800 's comment #86 (comment)

hey @0x00b1 do you think you can land this or should @codemonkey800 or @kne42 pick it up?

Previous Behavior:
The order of the array returned by Object.entries() does not depend on how the object is defined.
Current Behavior:
The ordering of the properties is the same as that given by looping over the property values of the object manually. I have also tested and verified that the correct behavior is met on multiple browsers.
