# Important: The sorting select shares the option rendering

## Description

`ViewHelpers\Form\SortingSelectViewHelper::renderOptionTags()` was removed. It
was identical to the method it inherits from
`FGTCLB\CategoryTypes\ViewHelpers\Form\AbstractSelectViewHelper`, down to the
last character - the class only ever needed its own `getOptions()`.

That base class writes every option through a single method now, which escapes
the option value. It used to concatenate the value unchanged while escaping the
label.

## Impact

The rendered markup is unchanged. The options of this select carry the values of
`Enumeration\SortingOptions` \- `title`, `asc`, `desc` and their siblings - and
none of them needs escaping.

An own subclass overriding `renderOptionTags()` keeps working, and one calling
`parent::renderOptionTags()` reaches the inherited implementation.
