Skip Sorted List Construction

Sourcery refactoring id: skip-sorted-list-construction

Description:

Removes an unnecessary intermediate construction call for a sorted list, in favour of the sorted builtin.

Before:

pies = list(pie_generator())
pies.sort()

After:

pies = sorted(pie_generator())

Explanation:

It's unnecessary to construct an intermediate list when sorting a generator, as the sorted builtin returns a list.
