Problem: There is no way to ensure a stable key order when encoding a JSON string, which can be useful for comparisons and producing cleaner diffs. Solution: Introduce a `sort_keys` option for `vim.json.encode()`,which is disabled by default. When enabled, object keys are sorted in alphabetical order. Adapts PR to upstream: openresty/lua-cjson#115.
