[0/3] Improve determinism of ABI XML representation

  This patch series introduces means to improve the stability of the ABI XML
representation across multiple runs of abidw.

If binaries are compiled in different ways (different order of compilation
units) or collected in a different way (different order of corpora), they might
be 100% compatible and their XML representation of the ABI might be even
identical. Yet as the current representation determines the order by the input
order, textual differences across different runs might be significantly
different.

This series stabilizes the sorting order of corpora in corpus-groups (while
still maintaining the main corpus as first entry) and the sorting order of
translation units associated with said corpora.

I did not send this series (just this cover letter), as the patch series also
adjusts the test data accordingly and therefore the patches are rather big.
Patch 3/3 is 50M! I staged them in a separate branch (mm-writer-improvements),
along with the other related patches I sent today:
