While addressing #270 with a newer sytest commit, I realised that the original sort was not as deterministic as I thought it would be, and that macOS sort acted differently than GNU sort, and GNU sort itself could act differently depending on set locale.

So, to remedy this, and to prepare for the update for the sytest list, I re-sorted it again and made the command work with a fixed linux distro + version, together with a specific locale, as that determined the sort as well.

This was performed on the same commit, there should be no new tests added, only shuffled around.

After this PR, I will make another one that will close update the list to the latest sytest commit, which will the #270 issue, as then most of the concerns have been addressed.

This PR is done separately from the above one to make sure irrelevant shuffling will not mix with the list update, and so that the update (and test additions/removals) can be addressed on their own.
