Objective

Implement sort_ranked_words, a stable sorter for a list of strings.

Steps

• Create ranked_words.py.
• Expose def sort_ranked_words(words: list[str]) -> list[str]:.
• Return a new list sorted by string length first, shortest to longest.
• When lengths are equal, compare strings using lowercase text.
• When length and lowercase text are equal, compare by the number of vowels in the original string, ascending.
• If all sorting keys are equal, keep the original relative order.
