Dear Engineer,

Display Templates should be sorted alphabetically in the configuration dialogue of the Asset Publisher widget.

In Widget Page-based solution the Asset publishers are used frequently and have a significant number of custom Display Templates.

Unfortunately, those templates are not sorted alphabetically in the Asset Publisher's configuration menu which makes it difficult for a content editor to navigate the available templates or effectively use keyboard navigation to browse the available templates.

Reproduction Steps:
1. Go to Control Menu → Design → Templates → Widget Templates
2. Create a sequence of templates with names not alphabetically ordered, e.g. Template D, Template B, Template E, Template C, Template A
3. Deploy an Asset Publisher
4. Open the Asset Publisher's configuration dialogue
5. Go to Setup → Display Settings → Display Template

Expected result The available (custom) Widget Templates are listed in alphabetical order (e.g. Template A, Template B, Template C, Template D, Template E).

Actual result: The available (custom) Widget Templates are listed presumably in the order they were created.
