Alphabetizing maps being encoded by key can cause problems because the
server side Rack relies on the fact that that a new array item will
start with a repeated key.
For example, given this encoding:
```
items: [
{ :type => 'sku', :parent => 'sku_94ZYSC0wppRTbk' },
{ :type => 'discount', :amount => -10000, :currency => 'cad', :description => 'potato' }
],
```
We need to have `type` appear first so that an array boundary is
recognized. So the encoded form should take:
```
items[][type]=sku&items[][parent]=...&items[][type]=discount&items[][amount]=...
```
But currently `type` gets sorted to the back, so we get something more
like:
```
items[][parent]=...&items[][type]=...&items[][amount]=...&items[][currency]=...&items[][description]=...&items[][type]=potato
```
Which the server will receive as this:
```
items: [
{ :type => 'sku', :parent => 'sku_94ZYSC0wppRTbk', :amount => -10000, :currency => 'cad', :description => 'potato' }
{ :type => 'discount' }
],
```
Here we remove the alphabetization to fix the problem and correct a bad
test.
