Allow Sorting of Components Column on Projects Page

[msymons]

Current Behavior

DT v4.11 (not yet released at time of logging this issue) introduces an optional "components" column on the projects page. The ability to sort the column was disabled via PR #767 "due to to technical limitations, it's not possible to sort by the number of components on the server-side".

Proposed Behavior

The technical limitations are related to our current need to support multiple database type. Dependency-Track v5.0.0 will use PostgreSQL only, thus removing the limitation.

Thus, I would like to see sorting of the components column implemented in DT 5.x.

One use is to perform a quick sanity check.. sort the column and see if there are projects with low number of components but high risk.
