Discover offline Updates case-sensitive sort

SUMMARY
When viewing the list of pending offline Updates, the list is currently case-sensitive, e.g. MozillaFirefox appears before codium. This should not be the case.

This is similar too, but not a duplicate of, recently fixed Bug 499638. That bug was for interactive updates and was kindly fixed by Harald Sitter with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/discover/-/merge_requests/1035. This bug is for offline updates, and is still present after that fix.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In System Settings, Software Update, have "Apply system updates: After rebooting" selected
2. Wait for many updates to be available, on an OS that tends to use mixed-case package names, e.g. openSUSE
3. Open Discover
4. Open Updates page
5. Click on the entry under System Software (with "X packages will be upgraded") and click More Information
6. View the list

OBSERVED RESULT
List is sorted case-sensitive alphabetically.

EXPECTED RESULT
List is sorted case-insensitive alphabetically.

Sort offline update items case-insensitively

Just like we sort online updates, which was implemented in
a58ac1270f6f130ec704dfbb6c72ff70f1b951c4.

Inspired in Nate's patch.
