Feature Request - Sorting Options Based on Search Query

[fakkio]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I often find myself in a situation where I need to sort the options based on the user's search query. Currently, I resort to implementing a fake-asynchronous search to achieve the desired sorting of results, but it would be more efficient and cleaner to have a native feature for sorting based on the search query.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to propose the addition of a new property, sortBy, that can be utilized alongside filterBy. This property should allow users to specify a custom sorting function that will be applied to the filtered options based on the user's search query. For example:

<Typeahead
  // existing props...
  filterBy={(option, props) => {/* existing filter logic */}}
  sortBy={(options, props) => {
    // Custom sorting logic based on the search query
    // ...
    return sortedOptions;
  }}
/>

How is this solution useful to others?
This feature would be beneficial for scenarios where users expect a customized sorting order based on their search input. It provides a more flexible and generalized way to handle result sorting, addressing a common use case across various applications.

Describe alternatives you've considered
As mentioned earlier, the current workaround involves implementing a simulated asynchronous search to manually sort the results in the onSearch handler. However, having a built-in option for dynamic sorting based on the search query would streamline the process and make the code more maintainable.
