My Projects table sort type decision

[NilakshiS]

Overview

We have two choices for the type of sorting to use on the table on "My Projects" page: "Stable Sort" and "Column Sort". Need stakeholders to make a decision on the type of sorting they want.

From Bonnie's comment on #1833:

What kind of sort do the stakeholders want?

Default sort is: Sort by oldest "Created On" date first

1. Column sort (the way it's working now)
   When you sort the column, no other columns remain sorted, the results of sort items that have the same name/title will be random. see image

2. Stable sort (the way that google sheets works)
   You can sort by one column, and then by another column, and it remembers the first sort, so if the second column has values that are the same, the results within that value will be sorted by the prior sort. See image where its sorted by time first, and then sorted by day, so it shows all the Friday meetings in order of time.
