widget attribute order and unittests...

[jens]

Check the path output in unittests are difficult, if a form widget
should be checked.

The Problem:
The widget html attribute order is not contingent and may change from
test to tests, because they come from a python dict witch is
unordered...

A simple patch could fix this, by adding sorted() to
forms.util.flatatt():
