Description

Connexion middleware sorts all available APIs from most specific to least because of starlettte's routing behavior https://github.com/spec-first/connexion/blob/5d7eb0bdab9ed404e1d294dac6ed951af3be7952/connexion/middleware/main.py#L334

Similar sorting algorithms should be done within an api's routes in the RoutingMiddleware

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the sorting logic in connexion/middleware/main.py at line 334 and implement a similar sorting algorithm in the RoutingMiddleware class to sort API routes from most specific to least specific.
