classutils.py: deterministic sorting
The method "prioritized" returns a list sorted by the value of the "priority" field, in descending order. However, if several list items have the same priority, the ordering of those items within the priority-sorted list becomes random. As a consequence, we may end up with a non-deterministic oe-terminal spawning, as several terminals have the same priority. So running commands such as $ bitbake xxx -cdevshell $ bitbake yyy -cmenuconfig may spawn a different terminal each time, for example sometimes Gnome and sometimes Konsole as hey have the same priority. Rather than modifying the priorities so they all differ, we sub-sort the list based on (terminal) names. This way we achieve a deterministic outcome.
