Sorting of new patches

Sorting of new patches

Hi Konstantin,

One thing I'm noticing is that patches in the "new" state get sorted
after patches that have had their reviews started (just above patches
waiting for new versions), this rather buries them in the UI.  It would
be good to either sort them first (as they need initial triage) or allow
limting by state.

Thanks,
Mark

Yeah, every sorting approach I've tried doesn't quite do what I want. I'm
going to revamp it again:

- list all series in a workable state at the top, sorted by last-activity:
  new, reviewing, accepted, replied, thanked, etc
- list all other series at the bottom: waiting, snoozed, gone
- add a state filter to the "limit" dialog
