This changes the output of xenstore-ls to be sorted.
Previously the keys were listed in the order in which they were inserted
in.
docs/misc/xenstore.txt doesn't specify in what order keys are listed.

Map.update is used to retain semantics with replace_child:
only an existing child is replaced, if it wasn't part of the original
map we don't add it.
Similarly exception behaviour is retained for del_childname and related
functions.

Entries are stored in reverse sort order, so that upon Map.fold the
constructed list is sorted in ascending order and there is no need for a
List.rev.

This changes the semantics and is not suitable as is for a backport.
It reveals bugs in buggy clients that depend on xenstore entry order,
however those clients should be fixed.
(We found one such bug in our internal testsuite where the first
 xenstore entry from a subtree was always dropped, and changing the
 listing order changed what key got dropped making the test fail)
