sorts ``item_list`` using key_list

    Args:
        item_list (list): list to sort
        *args: multiple lists to sort by
        **kwargs:
            reverse (bool): sort order is descending if True else acscending

    Returns:
        list : ``list_`` sorted by the values of another ``list``. defaults to
        ascending order

    CommandLine:
        python -m utool.util_list --exec-sortedby2 --show
