/**
* The PopulateBranchDropDownList method gets a list of all branches sorted by name, creates a SelectList
* collection for a drop-down list, and passes the collection to the view in a ViewBag property. The method accepts
* the optional selectedBranch parameter that allows the calling code to specify the item that will be selected
* when the drop-down list is rendered. The view will pass the name BranchID to the DropDownList helper, and the
* helper then knows to look in the ViewBag object for a SelectList named BranchID.
