Perl 5.18 randomizes the seed used by its hash function, so iterating
through hashes results in different orders from run to run:
  http://perldoc.perl.org/perl5180delta.html#Hash-overhaul

This usually broke t9400 (gitcvs.dbname, gitcvs.ext.dbname, when
running cmp on two .sqlite files) and t9402 (check [cvswork3] diff,
when running test_cmp on two diffs).

To fix this, hide the internal order of hashes with sort when sending
output or running database queries.

(An alternative workaround is PERL_HASH_SEED=0, but this seems nicer.)
