Notes:

• Makes use of natural sorting to sort numerical values correctly. Sorts numbers, Dates, alphanumeric, etc.

• class="order-by-desc" on <th> to change default sort to descending order on first click.

• If <thead> does not exist it will be created by using data from first row. <tbody> is optional.

• Example of use: https://www.cssscript.com/minimal-table-sorter/

• Add table-arrows class to display ascending or descending triangle.
