Avoid random ordering of lines in JSON output. #780

Pretty much what it says on the tin.

As the lines are stored in a HashMap, calling into_values() gives us a random order of lines. My solution here is definitely not pretty but was the simplest thing that worked without putting too much thought into the code. I hope thats fine. And thank you for the tool :)

I went for a different solution, but thanks for the report and PR :)
