Current evaluation

Feature request to sort 'snapcraft gated' output by snap name (a-z) and by validation date (desc) per snap. Open since ~2017 with zero comments and no maintainer interaction; gated command still exists in the codebase.

Suggested action: close stale

Reason: The issue is ~9.5 years old (3472 days) with 0 comments and no maintainer acknowledgement, and the gated command was later refactored/migrated (commit 21091b932 'refactor: migrate gated command (#6145)'), so the original output format and code path have changed substantially. The request is a minor cosmetic/UX improvement to output ordering, not a functional bug, and there is no evidence it was ever triaged or that the disorganized output persists in the current implementation.

Issue body

When running "snapcraft gated <gating_snap>" the output is very disorganized. For example, different revisions for a snap appear without order, and also snaps are not ordered alphabetically. My suggestion would be: * Snap name ordered a-z * Different revisions of the same snap ordered by validation date (descendent) Thanks!
