Consider switching to sortable for sorting tables

[jelly]

jquery.tablesorter is no longer maintained, sortable looks like a more active alternative.

Main benefit is dropping 14 kB (tablesorter) + 30kB (jQuery) of JavaScript for 1kB of vanilla JavaScript

I don't know how the contributing here works but can I take over this issue and try to resolve it?

Sure, just raise a PR and link it to this issue if you're interested in contributing 😄

Hey! I tried to attempt the issue but i couldn't get the data loaded for groups and many other places so it's hard for me to test the sortings whether it's correct or not

 uv run ./manage.py loaddata main/fixtures/*.json
 uv run ./manage.py loaddata devel/fixtures/*.json
 uv run ./manage.py loaddata mirrors/fixtures/*.json
 uv run ./manage.py loaddata releng/fixtures/*.json

and

 wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/core/os/x86_64/core.db.tar.gz
 uv run ./manage.py reporead x86_64 core.db.tar.gz
 # Package file listing
 wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/core/os/x86_64/core.files.tar.gz
 uv run ./manage.py reporead --filesonly x86_64 core.files.tar.gz

I wrote the above commands using the default sqlite3 database as shown but still couldn't get any data rendered when opening the url http://localhost:8000/groups/ in developement server
is there something i missed?

Try the [extra] repository, I am not sure if [core] has any package groups.
