[yocto-autobuilder2,v2,1/2] schedulers: sort repo branches in maintained stable branches

From: Yoann Congal <yoann.congal@smile.fr>

This should help seeing if any branch is missing by comparing with the
"Build Properties" page of a build.

I don't know how these are actually used, but is a branch for poky 
really meaningful with Whinlatter? Though I notice that meta-gplv2 
is also mentioned above, and it has been dead and buried for years...

Those are used to pre-fill the "target branch" fields when starting a new
build on the autobuilder.
Poky and meta-gplv2 are not used in the build but since the field is
present, I'd rather have it filled to a known value instead of inheriting
the default value.
I agree that some cleanup should be done to remove those unused repos from
the UI but that is for another day.

It is a limitation of the build infrastructure, it needs to be set to
something resolvable. No, it isn't ideal, equally we've a lot of bigger
problems. When we drop kirkstone, we can drop that too.
