What?
This sorts the keys of theme.json on export alphabetically.
Why?
The order of the properties on the export currently are not predictable, which means that when you export the theme.json back to an existing theme the diff doesn't match as the properties are in a different order.
How?
Uses a utility function.
Testing Instructions
Notes
I'm not sure if this is really what we want. Often the properties don't read as well in this order, but without a predictable order we will continue to have problems when creating diffs from the site editor.
