Sort gems in your Gemfile

@descentintomael, why not? I found it quite handy to have sorted groups of gems in large Gemfile.
For instance, take a look at catarse project's Gemfile
and at the version with sorted gems in groups. At the first sight there is no difference, but I believe that the additional rule (or convention) reduces the chaos in that file. Of course it should be a team decision.

@janlelis, nice script! Not sure I'll use it to keep a sorted list of gems - it adds a lot of noise to Gemfile. Overall, I like it, it could save some time.
