Description

Folders now always come first when sorting by name. Before, the folder and file groups were concatenated in sort direction, so descending put files first and folders at the bottom. The direction now only orders within each group.

Related Issue

• Works towards Folder gets sorted as a file if it contains a dot: "." #3381

How Has This Been Tested?

• test environment: local, pnpm test:unit --run, pnpm check:types, pnpm lint, pnpm format:check
• test case 1: ascending by name keeps folders on top
• test case 2: descending by name keeps folders on top, reversed within each group

Types of changes

• Bugfix
• Enhancement (a change that doesn't break existing code or deployments)
• Breaking change (a modification that affects current functionality)
• Technical debt (addressing code that needs refactoring or improvements)
• Tests (adding or improving tests)
• Documentation (updates or additions to documentation)
• Maintenance (like dependency updates or tooling adjustments)

@kulmann @tbsbdr needs PM decision

Yep, that's a good finding. Not preserving the two groups would probably be received as a bug since there's no other file cloud which flips the two groups when reversing the sort order.
