Summary: ConfigParser to save with order

Initial Comment:
ConfigParser saves the data in a not-predefined order.
This is because it keeps, internally, the information
in dictionaries.

This patch orders the info to be saved in the file
through the ConfigParser write() method.

This patch does not let the user to specify the order.

Note that the patch is backwards (new old instead of old new).

IMO the 'surgical' editing that has been proposed many times
on python-dev and c.l.p would be superior to this.  IOW, the
original order of the file should be retained (any new
entries could be added alphabetically, as here).
