Feature description

(Forwarded from https://github.com/FossifyOrg/File-Manager/issues/122#event-14496575230 )

The option labels "ascending" and "descending" should change depending on the property being sorted by. Because otherwise, it would be unclear on what "ascending" means when it comes to date sorting.
