Relay list on Android is incorrectly sorted

Is it a bug?
- I know this is an issue with the app, and contacting Mullvad support is not relevant.
I have checked if others have reported this already
- I have checked the issue tracker to see if others have reported similar issues.
Current Behavior
Version 2026.8, European Portuguese locale:
Expected Behavior
Under the selected locale, the two marked entries ("África do Sul", "Áustria") should be sorted among the A's. One way to fix this is to use a locale-aware Unicode collator.
Both the desktop and iOS apps (the latter since #10799) present the correct behaviour.
Steps to Reproduce
- Change system language to European Portuguese
- Open the relay list
