Initializer to sort files before eager loading. [#859 state:resolved]

Changed Rails::Initializer to sort files before eager loading them. This ensures that
any files in a parent directory will be loaded before files in a subdirectory of the
'same' name. i.e. zoo.rb will be loaded before zoo/reptile_house.rb
