[issue2551034] REST etag ordering

New submission from Joseph Myers:

The REST etag generation uses node.items(protected=True).  The order in
which properties appear in the result of node.items() is not necessarily
deterministic; it ends up depending on the ordering of dict keys, and
only in more recent Python 3 versions is dict guaranteed to preserve
insertion order.

I think sorting the result of items() should suffice to address this
issue (so repr(sorted(items)) (untested)).
