Hi!

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that libdebian-copyright-perl doesn't produce reproducible copyright files [2].
The Files and License sections can appear in an unsorted order.

The attached patch fixes this by sorting Files sections by path, License
sections by name, and "x or y" listings.

Regards,
 Reiner
