[issue19026] OrderedDict should not accept dict as parameter

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger added the comment:

An OrderedDict is a dict subclass and needs to accept the same inputs as dict methods.  This is a guaranteed API and not a bug.

It is not the OrderedDict's fault if you supply an unordered input.  It can't add order after the fact.
