Portals asset sort order improvements

Introduced new sorting options for asset sections in Portals. Previously limited to Newest to oldest and Oldest to newest, you can now sort assets by the following criteria:

• Date Added: Newest to oldest
• Date Added: Oldest to newest
• Date Updated: Newest to oldest
• Date Updated: Oldest to newest

This update enables portal admins to choose whether to sort assets by their addition date or last update date in DAM.

Customer benefits

• Provides clarity and flexibility in asset sorting, which improves user experience.
• Allows more precise organization of assets based on user preferences.

Bug Fixes

• Resolved an issue where updates to the banner image in portals caused the custom label in the Table of Contents to revert to the default Banner Section.
• Fixed an issue where logo images in the navigation menu sections of Brand portals were not displaying on live pages, despite being visible in editor mode.
• Addressed a performance issue causing slow loading times for dynamic gallery sections in Portals, significantly reducing load times from over 20 seconds to approximately 1 second.
• Corrected an issue where editing large text sections in the Rich Text Editor caused slowness and freezing in Portals.
• Eliminated noisy data in Portals by removing extra embed views from thumbnail loads, improving data accuracy for embed views.
• Fixed an issue where uploading large batches of files through the Uploader UI resulted in missing assets, ensuring all files are now correctly processed and created as assets.
• Resolved delays in processing orders and downloads, ensuring faster and more reliable performance.
• Fixed a transparency issue in CI HUB integrations, ensuring converted assets retain transparency.
