Python before 3.6 does not sort dictionaries (including kwargs). Therefore, printing QMP objects involves sorting the keys to have a predictable ordering in the iotests output.
However, if we want to pretty-print QMP objects being sent to the QEMU process, we need to build the entire command before logging it. Ordinarily, this would then involve "arguments" being sorted above "execute", which would necessitate a rather ugly and harder-to-read change to many iotests outputs. To facilitate pretty-printing AND maintaining predictable output AND having "arguments" sort before "execute", add a custom sort function that takes a dictionary and recursively builds an OrderedDict that maintains the specific key order we wish to see in iotests output.
