Add option for sorting in case-sensitive order to add-on "Format the Java properties file"

Describe the problem

In my repository I sort the strings in the Java properties files by their key in a case-sensitive order. I noticed that newly translated strings are appended to the end of the properties file. That is why I tried the add-on "Format the Java properties file" which sorts the strings. However it is doing that in a case-insensitive order. This is giving a lot of difference to process when merging the new translations into my repository. So for the moment I am better of not using the add-on "Format the Java properties file".

Describe the solution you would like

I would like the add-on "Format the Java properties file" to have a configuration option to sort the entries in a case-sensitive order.

Describe alternatives you have considered

Maybe the properties files for the translations could stick to the key order of the monolingual base properties file. I think that is more difficult to implement.

Additional context

Not relevant to me, but you could add other common format options like "Align properties in columns" and "Insert space around key-value delimiter"

Indeed, the current implementation is case-insensitive, adding an option to make it case-sensitive should be pretty easy. Related code is here: https://github.com/WeblateOrg/weblate/blob/main/weblate/addons/properties.py
