Make sorting by Notebook or do not "spread" de sorting of notes on all the app or make it a option #66

Actual behavior : if we apply any sort ( alphabetical,etc) of the notes on a notebook it replicates on all others notebooks.
Desired : If applied to a notebook doesn't change the choice we've made on others previously . It can be a setting choice "Equal sorting all for all notebooks " X " Same sorting for all"

It's really useful because some notebooks are better used, and viewed , by date ( ex. notes about the newer the best) other alphabetically (ex. recipes ) .

And it is connected to the #62 (comment) . One primary "priority" sort of tasks is to put a "A" or "+A" on the front of the task , or "B", etc which is used by todo.txt standard.

So if you implement this , anyone can creat "ToDo" or "Tasks" folder , inside this others folders for each "project", and a note for each "task" and view it sorted by "priority", at least on each "project".

Sort order is remembered per vault (since v1.3.0), and within a vault it's shared across all notebooks. That's the intended granularity: a per-notebook sort mode tends to get confusing fast, and per-vault keeps the list predictable when you jump between notebooks. I'm going to close this as by-design, but if the per-notebook case comes up again from more people I'll revisit it. Thanks for the suggestion.
