FindMatlab: Sort available Matlab versions using natural comparison.

Vincent Newsum requested to merge vynewsum/cmake:matlab_versions_natural_sort into master

On Windows, when FindMatlab.cmake searches the registry for installed Matlab versions, it sorts these versions alphabetically. Since Matlab 2021a (version 9.10) came out this became a problem as now version 9.10 is placed after 9.1 instead of after a higher version less than 9.10. The result is that FindMatlab doesn't return the highest version by default. This fix uses the natural sort comparison which was introduced in CMake 3.18.
