Title:
  Sort the output list of matching nvidia drivers

Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Noble:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The list of matching nvidia drivers found for the system, obtained
  with ubuntu-drivers list, is printed in random order. It is not
  obvious which driver is the recommended one. The driver that is
  recommended can be obtained by calling ubuntu-drivers list
  --recommended.

  [ Impact ]
  User has no easy way of knowing which driver to select from an unsorted list.

  [ Steps to reproduce ]
  1. Call 'ubuntu-drivers list' multiple times
  2. observe the list that is returned. I will vary between calls

  [ Test plan ]
  1. Install ubuntu-drivers on a machine with a modern NVIDIA card
  2. Call 'ubuntu-drivers list' multiple tines

  [ Expected result ]
  The output list should be consistently sorted between calls
