Sam Doran 56c6ebe258 [stable-2.9] Make sorting in collection_loader match plugin loader (#65776)
* Simply sorting of Windows files below other plugin types
    Using the sort method with a custom key function uses less memory than creating multiple lists then joining them.

    This seemed to be an acceptable use of a lamdba, even though I geneally try to avoid them.

* Fix sorting of plugins inside of collections
    Explicitly sort Windows files below others, mimicking what we do in plugin/loader.py

* Add documentation about ansible.builtin and ansible.legacy
    Also document to the two different methods used for searching based on the candidate type.

* Add changelog
* Add integration test
* Update comment with expected sort order
(cherry picked from commit 6f76a48f59)
