[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 5/6] block: sort formats alphabetically in bdrv_iterate_format()

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

Format names are best consumed in alphabetical order.  This makes
human-readable output easy to produce.

bdrv_iterate_format() already has an array of format strings.  Sort them
before invoking the iteration callback.
