Log:
  Sort pkgbase mtree metadata, for reproducible builds

  Packaged base packages are created by running the stageworld and
  stagekernel targets with -DNO_ROOT, and converting the resulting mtree
  file into a set of pkg plists.  If stage* is run with multiple processes
  the order of entries in the mtree file may be nondeterministic, and the
  resulting package tbz also had nondeterministic file ordering.

  The mtree file generated by -DNO_ROOT builds consists of one line per
  file, with the filename starting in the first column, so is easily
  sorted.  There's one exception: the first line of the mtree file is a
  comment, but the # character sorts before the filenames anyhow and needs
  no special treatment.
