From: Karthik Nayak <karthik.188@gmail.com>

Add support to sort by version using the "v:refname" and "version:refname" option. This is achieved by using the 'version_cmp()' function as the comparing function for qsort.

This option is included to support sorting by versions in `git tag -l` which will eventaully be ported to use ref-filter APIs.

Add documentation and tests for the same.
