Add a text-first option for URL columns so they sort by the text displayed#271

Currently, URL columns require the data use two-sticks || notation: link || text. The problem is that tables sorts those columns alphabetically based on the full data and therefore by the link, not the text. In most cases, links will be sorted incorrectly.

Suggestion: add a 3-stick option with the format text ||| link. It should be relatively easy to implement and you can keep the “full data” sorting system. The linked text will now be sorted by the text displayed.
