[wp-docs] Sort by Version in Extend

[Jane Wells]

I've been talking to Ryan and the guys for a while about this (I like  
everything to be sortable, and the lack of compatibility info in  
plugin search results and list screen in admin bugs me). There are  
some issues around plugin authors not keeping the text snippet that  
provides the "'compatible up to" up to date. Before we add the sort  
function, we're looking at the bigger picture of how to make sure that  
information is up to date. We've talked about building a system for  
users to verify a plugin works with version x, and have that override  
the plugin author's outdated note. Still figuring it out.
