tags: write tags cache deterministically

An upcoming test verifies content of the .hg/cache/tags file. During
testing, inconsistent output was observed. This is the result of
iterating over a dictionary.

Throw a sorted() around tags entries to ensure .hg/cache/tags is written
deterministically so test output is stable.
