Hi!

While working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
that libmodule-build-perl could not be built reproducibly. It also
prevents other packages to build reproducibly.

The issue is that it outputs data with keys in a different order at each
run. The attached patch will tell Data::Dumper to sort the keys,
resulting in a stable output.
