I think that this patch should be correct. The sorting of modules is
done only for mode == 'import' in GLImport.__init__. Looking at the
path from main, this would make the sorting happen right before
performing the transitive closure, like gnulib-tool.

Also this comment from gnulib-tool:
    # In 'import' mode, the new set of specified modules overrides the cached
    # set of modules. Ignore the cached settings.

So we only care about self.config.getModules().

I've also removed the sorted() calls in actioncmd. The sorting in
__init__ works correctly so gnulib-tool and gnulib-tool.py output the
same actioncmd (at least with Emac's merge-gnulib). Let me know if I
missed anything.

Subject: [PATCH] gnulib-tool.py: Make module sorting more similar to
 gnulib-tool.

* pygnulib/GLImport.py (GLImport.__init__): Sort modules when mode is
'import'.
(GLImport.actioncmd): Don't sort modules while creating actioncmd. Use
preferred quoting style.
