Public bug reported:

Currently if we add a block to a page via a new BlockInstance we need to
add the block as the last in sort order.

But we can't add the block at a specific sort order due to clashing with
existing blocks.

However the View->addblocktype can handle adding a block as a certain
point by using the private function shuffle_cell but this function only
returns the rendered html of the block if 'returndata' is set.

I'll add ability to return new blockinstance id if 'returndata' === 'id'
as an option
