Changing category sorting

@Matthiaspaul, Redrose64, and Dpleibovitz:: I've changed this template so it no longer uses the first parameter for sortkeys, and instead automatically gives each page a sortkey. The sortkey is generated through removing the 'U+' and converting the remaining number from hexadecimal to base 10 using {{hex2dec}}. This ensures the pages are sorted by their code point index, which is the way the Unicode Standard sorts them and the most straightforward way I can see to sort them.

I've pinged you 3 because you've used this template with the sortkey parameter in the past. Also, based on my personal experience, Redrose seems familiar with templates and probably has an idea of what should be done with all of the templates that now use an unnecessary parameter.
