Alphabetic navigation order

When `nav_order` is omitted, the order of nodes at each menu level (and in the auto-generated TOC) is alphabetical by `title`, instead of random.
Any nodes with a specified `nav_order` precede all nodes at that level where it is omitted.
Note that `nav_order` fields must have a uniform site-ide type: integers and strings cannot be mixed, otherwise Jekyll reports errors.
The implementation filters the ordered and unordered pages from `site.html_pages`, sorts them separately, and concatenates the resulting arrays.
