Sorts the array, using @compare_func which should be a qsort()-style
comparison function (returns less than zero for first arg is less
than second arg, zero for equal, greater than zero if irst arg is
greater than second arg).
Note that the comparison function for g_ptr_array_sort() doesn't
take the pointers from the array as arguments, it takes pointers to
the pointers in the array. Here is a full example of usage:

This is guaranteed to be a stable sort since version 2.32.
