Use the new 'icon-grid-layout' key to sort the applications and folders as it is saved. Applications that are not in the key are appended, and when compared to each other, fallback to alphabetical order. Because the 'icon-grid-layout' key is, by default, empty, this means that all icons and folders are sorted alphabetically the first time they are displayed, preserving the current behavior. This commit does not add any way to change the order without modifying the GSettings key directly. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/603
