Message:

Twenty Twenty One: Fix post navigation to respect sort order.

Change the labels on post navigation links when the sort order is changed so the labels accurately reflect the target entries.

Previously, if the sort order was reversed, 'Older' or 'Previous' links would navigate to newer entries and 'Newer' or 'Next' links would navigate to older entries.

Props jikamens, dancameron, obenland, shrey0shrivastava, sirlouen, sabernhardt, shailu25, joedolson.
See #10219.
