httpcaddyfile: Fix route ordering bug

https://caddy.community/t/cant-get-simple-alias-to-work/7911/8?u=matt

This removes an optimization where we amortized path matcher decoding.
The decoded matchers were index by... position... which obviously
changes during sorting. Duh.

Anyway, sorting is sliiightly slower now but the Caddyfile is not
really CPU-sensitive, so this is fine.
