Widget Customizer: Better ordering of widget areas

Description

Wouldn't it make more sense to order the widget areas in which they are registered? Sometimes themes name their widget areas '... One', '... Two' etc. Currently these are not ordered correctly, and widget areas in the footer appear above the main sidebar. See screenshot with Twenty Eleven active.

Order widget area sections in the order they were registered. Give widget area sections a high priority so that they appear at the end of the customizer. ​https://github.com/x-team/wordpress-develop/compare/trac-27401

In 27541:

Widget Customizer: Move widget area sections to bottom.

Since a theme can have a lot of widget areas and we don't want to bury third-party sections, bump the widget sections to the bottom with a priority of 1000+. Fixes also the ordering.
