@cmungall thanks for the review! are the changes here in line with what you were thinking? so far the enumerated orderings are: lexical, rank, and preserve.

• [x] removed independent ordering methods, in favor of a parameter for ordering to all_classes and all_slots methods.
• [x] made a couple of methods to order either slots or classes lexically, as are written in the YAML, or rank order.

talked to Chris - this is ready to go if tests pass.
