[configdb]: Sorting all json config-elements residing in config_db.json (#1454)

Just a simple change to make sonic's user life a little bit easier. Displaying the multiple elements of config_db.json in an orderly fashion allows a more intuitive user-experience.

For this change i'm simply intercepting the config-state that is about to be dumped to config_db.json, and i'm placing it in an ordered-dictionary, so that information is pushed to file in natural/alphanumerical ordering.

Example:

admin@lnos-x1-a-csw01:~$ sudo sonic-cfggen -m /etc/sonic/minigraph.xml --print-data
{
...
      "PORT": {
        "Ethernet0": {
             "alias": "Eth1/1",
             "lanes": "65"
},
        "Ethernet1": {
             "alias": "Eth1/2",
             "lanes": "66"
},
        "Ethernet2": {
             "alias": "Eth1/3",
             "lanes": "67"
},
        "Ethernet3": {
            "alias": "Eth1/4",
            "lanes": "68"
},
        "Ethernet4": {
             "alias": "Eth2/1",
             "lanes": "69"
},
...
...
    "INTERFACE": {
       "Ethernet0|10.0.0.0/31": {},
       "Ethernet1|10.0.0.2/31": {},
       "Ethernet2|10.0.0.4/31": {},
       "Ethernet3|10.0.0.6/31": {},
       "Ethernet4|10.0.0.8/31": {},
