Not currently, but it would be trivial to add.  Converting from
CSR<->CSC (a linear time operation) has the side effect of sorting the
column/row indices.  Two conversions (CSR->CSC->CSR) would produce the
desired result in the original format.

I will add ensure_sorted_indices() to csr_matrix and csc_matrix.
