SG-41006 Fix alphabetical sorting issue introduced on v0.15.10

[carlos-villavicencio-adsk]

This requires #166 to be merged first due to some fixing on code style CI.

This pull request introduces improvements to the default sorting behavior for tasks in the workfiles browser UI. The main change is to ensure that tasks are now sorted alphabetically by their name (content field) by default, both when loading and refreshing task lists, and when interacting with sorting menus. Additionally, automatic alphabetical sorting is enabled for models that do not use custom sorting logic.

Default Sorting Improvements:

• The MyTasksModel now loads and refreshes with default sorting by the content field (task name) in ascending order, ensuring tasks are listed alphabetically by name. [1] [2]
• When filtering tasks by status, the results are also sorted by the content field in ascending order.
• The default sort menu selection is updated to use the content field (task name) and ascending order, and the corresponding menu item is checked by default.

Automatic Sorting for Non-Custom Models:

• In the entity tree proxy model, automatic alphabetical sorting is enabled for models that do not use custom sorting (i.e., non-MyTasksModel instances, such as Assets/Shots tabs).
