Should resolve#30642.
Before this commit, we were treating an empty `?sort=` query parameter
as the correct sorting type (which is to sort issues in descending order
by their created UNIX time). But when we perform `sort=latest`, we did
not include this as a type so we would sort by the most recently updated
when reaching the `default` switch statement block.
This commit fixes this by considering the empty string, "latest", and
just any other string that is not mentioned in the switch statement as
sorting by newest.
