nimble.lock packages should be sorted #1184

I just updated a nimble.lock file and it's very difficult to determine what changed (with git diff) because the order of packages seems arbitrary. Maybe I used two different versions of nimble and it actually does produce deterministic ordering. If so, sorry for the noise.

Looks like the order is topological. Hmm... I can understand the reason for doing that, but couldn't topology be computed after reading the file?
