feat(tables): implement sortable columns across various table components

- Added TableSortProvider to manage sorting state in AdminsTable, CmsTable, CompaniesTable, CustomersTable, TendersTable, and CompanyCategoriesTable.
- Enhanced TableHead component to support sortable columns with visual indicators for sort direction.
- Introduced columnSortKeys and columnDefaultOrder mappings in respective table presenters to define sortable fields and default sorting behavior.
- Updated useCompanyListPresenter, useCmsTablePresenter, useCustomerListPresenter, useTenderListPresenter, and useCompanyCategoriesPresenter to handle sorting logic and state management.
- Improved user experience by allowing dynamic sorting of table data based on user interactions.

+# BP Panel — List sorting (frontend)
+
+Guide for **Business Partner (BP)** list screens under `/api/v1`. Use these query parameters to control item order on paginated GET endpoints.
+
+This does **not** apply to Kanban board card order (see [board-api.md](./board-api.md) — cards use `order` on move/reorder APIs).
+
+---
+
+## Quick reference
+
+| Parameter | Type | Default | Allowed values |
+|-----------|------|---------|----------------|
+| `sort_by` | string | `created_at` | MongoDB field name (see per-endpoint tables) |
+| `sort_order` | string | `desc` | `asc` or `desc` |
+
+**Example (newest tenders first — also the default if omitted):**
+
+```http
+GET /api/v1/tenders?limit=20&sort_by=created_at&sort_order=desc
+Authorization: Bearer <customer_access_token>
+```
+
+**Example (soonest deadline first):**
+
+```http
+GET /api/v1/tenders?limit=20&sort_by=tender_deadline&sort_order=asc
+```
+
+---
+
+## Authentication
+
+All BP list endpoints below require a **customer** JWT from:
+
+```http
+POST /api/v1/profile/login
+```
+
+```http
+Authorization: Bearer <access_token>
+```
+
+Base URL (local): `http://localhost:8081/api/v1`
+
+---
+
+## How sorting works
+
+1. **`sort_by`** must match the **BSON field name** stored in MongoDB (snake_case), not the JSON display name in the UI.
+2. **`sort_order`**
+   - `desc` — highest / latest values first (default).
+   - `asc` — lowest / earliest values first.
+3. If you omit both parameters, the API uses **`sort_by=created_at`** and **`sort_order=desc`**.
+4. Lists use **keyset (cursor) pagination**. When requesting page 2+ with `cursor`, you **must keep the same** `sort_by`, `sort_order`, `limit`, and filters as the request that produced `meta.next_cursor`. Changing sort mid-pagination returns **400** (`cursor does not match requested sort`).
+5. Do not send **`cursor` and `offset` together** — the API returns **400**.
+
+### Pagination parameters (used with sorting)
+
+| Parameter | Default | Max | Notes |
+|-----------|---------|-----|--------|
+| `limit` | `10` | `100` | Page size |
+| `offset` | `0` | — | First page only; prefer `cursor` for deep pages |
+| `cursor` | — | — | Copy from `meta.next_cursor` on the previous response |
+
+### Response metadata
+
+Sorted list responses include `meta` on the envelope:
+
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "message": "Tenders retrieved successfully",
+  "data": { "tenders": [] },
+  "meta": {
+    "total": 240,
+    "limit": 20,
+    "offset": 0,
+    "page": 1,
+    "pages": 12,
+    "has_more": true,
+    "next_cursor": "eyJ2IjoxLCJzb3J0X2ZpZWxkIjoiY3JlYXRlZF9hdCIs..."
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Endpoints that support `sort_by` / `sort_order`
+
+### Tenders — main panel list
+
+| | |
+|--|--|
+| **Method / path** | `GET /api/v1/tenders` |
+| **Also** | `GET /api/v1/tenders/recommend` (same sorting rules) |
+| **Default sort** | `created_at` `desc` |
+
+**Recommended `sort_by` values** (field exists on tender documents):
+
+| `sort_by` | Use case |
+|-----------|----------|
+| `created_at` | Newest ingested / default |
+| `updated_at` | Recently changed tenders |
+| `publication_date` | Publication date on TED notice |
+| `tender_deadline` | Submission / tender deadline |
+| `submission_deadline` | Alternative deadline field when set |
+| `estimated_value` | Value high → low or low → high |
+| `title` | Alphabetical (locale-dependent) |
+| `status` | Group by lifecycle status |
+| `country_code` | Group by country |
+
+> The backend does not whitelist tender `sort_by` values. Use only documented fields; unknown fields may sort incorrectly or behave unpredictably.
+
+**Example with filters + sort:**
+
+```http
+GET /api/v1/tenders?limit=20&country_codes=DE,FR&sort_by=publication_date&sort_order=desc&deadline_from=1717200000
+```
+
+**TypeScript helper:**
+
+```typescript
+type SortOrder = "asc" | "desc";
+
+interface ListSortParams {
+  sort_by?: string;
+  sort_order?: SortOrder;
+  limit?: number;
+  offset?: number;
+  cursor?: string;
+}
+
+function buildTenderListQuery(
+  filters: Record<string, string | number | string[] | undefined>,
+  sort: ListSortParams = { sort_by: "created_at", sort_order: "desc", limit: 20 }
+): string {
+  const params = new URLSearchParams();
+  for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(filters)) {
+    if (value === undefined) continue;
+    if (Array.isArray(value)) value.forEach((v) => params.append(key, v));
+    else params.set(key, String(value));
+  }
+  params.set("sort_by", sort.sort_by ?? "created_at");
+  params.set("sort_order", sort.sort_order ?? "desc");
+  if (sort.limit) params.set("limit", String(sort.limit));
+  if (sort.cursor) params.set("cursor", sort.cursor);
+  else if (sort.offset) params.set("offset", String(sort.offset));
+  return params.toString();
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+### Notifications
+
+| | |
+|--|--|
+| **Method / path** | `GET /api/v1/notifications` |
+| **Default sort** | `created_at` `desc` |
+
+**Recommended `sort_by` values:**
+
+| `sort_by` | Use case |
+|-----------|----------|
+| `created_at` | Newest notifications (default) |
+| `updated_at` | Last updated |
+| `seen_at` | Seen / unread ordering |
+| `priority` | Important first (with `sort_order=desc`) |
+| `schedule_at` | Scheduled notifications |
+
+---
+
+### Feedback (company list)
+
+| | |
+|--|--|
+| **Method / path** | `GET /api/v1/feedback` |
+| **Default sort** | `created_at` `desc` |
+| **Scope** | Company-scoped from the logged-in customer |
+
+**Recommended `sort_by` values:**
+
+| `sort_by` | Use case |
+|-----------|----------|
+| `created_at` | Newest feedback (default) |
+| `updated_at` | Recently changed |
+| `feedback_type` | Group likes / dislikes |
+
+---
+
+## Endpoints without `sort_by` / `sort_order` (BP)
+
+| Endpoint | Notes |
+|----------|--------|
+| `GET /api/v1/tender-approvals` | Uses `limit` / `offset` only; **no** `sort_by` on the public handler today |
+| `GET /api/v1/companies` | Single “my company” resource, not a sortable list |
+| Kanban (`/admin/v1/kanban/...`) | Admin-only; card order is `order` + move/reorder APIs |
+
+If you need sorted tender approvals in BP, coordinate with backend to add `sort_by` / `sort_order` to `PublicGetTenderApprovals` (admin list already supports them).
+
+---
+
+## UI patterns
+
+### Column header → query params
+
+| UI label | `sort_by` | Typical `sort_order` |
+|----------|-----------|----------------------|
+| Date added | `created_at` | `desc` |
+| Deadline | `tender_deadline` | `asc` |
+| Value | `estimated_value` | `desc` |
+| Published | `publication_date` | `desc` |
+
+Toggle the same column: flip `asc` ↔ `desc`. Changing column: set new `sort_by` and reset to page 1 (`offset=0`, drop `cursor`).
+
+### Infinite scroll / “Load more”
+
+1. First request: `sort_by`, `sort_order`, `limit`, filters — no `cursor`.
+2. Next page: repeat the **same** sort and filters; pass `cursor=meta.next_cursor`.
+3. Stop when `meta.has_more === false`.
+
+---
+
+## Errors
+
+| Situation | HTTP | `error.code` (typical) |
+|-----------|------|-------------------------|
+| Invalid `sort_order` (not `asc`/`desc`) | 400 | `BAD_REQUEST` |
+| `cursor` + `offset` together | 400 | `BAD_REQUEST` |
+| `cursor` with different `sort_by` / `sort_order` | 400 | `BAD_REQUEST` |
+| `limit` &lt; 1 or &gt; 100 | 400 | `BAD_REQUEST` |
+
+---
+
+## Admin panel (reference)
+
+Admin list routes under `/admin/v1/*` use the same `sort_by` / `sort_order` conventions where `response.NewPagination` is used. Some admin forms restrict values (e.g. tender approvals: `created_at`, `updated_at`, `status`, `submission_mode`). BP tender lists are **less restricted** than admin tender-approval lists.
