Subject: Ensure stable sort order when sorting by size
X-Git-Url: https://cloud.milkyroute.net/gitweb/dolphin.git/commitdiff_plain/baaf0c29b857997720b9cb0d584a44306963fb97

Ensure stable sort order when sorting by size

Folders with equal size caused the sort operation to become unstable,
as the result of lessThan was non-deterministic.

We need the fallback mechanisms at the bottom of the function to
resovle the situation and provide a stable sort order.

This also fixes expanding the contents of a folder into the wrong
parent.
