Before this change we would do the following :
1) translate from_disk's object into `dict`,
2) sort these dict,
3) feed the list to `Directory.from_dict`,
4) create DirectoryEntry from these dict.
Skipping the directory creating and directly creating the
DirectoryEntries provide us with a small but stable and noticeable
performance win.
We tested this change on simple information of the Mercurial loader,
with a noop-loader stockage:

model: avoid another extra creation of Model object
Do not create model object while sorting entry before creating model
object.
This is another case of "let us create object X to prepare the creation
of object X", slowing things down.
In practice, we will likely skip this code-path after the next
changeset, however this seems useful to get this performance footgun
out the way.

You are planning to merge this new code with child_to_directory_entry's in a future diff, right?
Not really. child_to_directory_entry take a single from_disk's child and turn it into a dictionary. Here we are processing the list of child directly to model's DirectoryEntry
