testing: expectDiagnostics() should provide an option to ignore ordering

[garethj-msft]

Clear and concise description of the problem

Overview

Code churn can easily cause diagnostics to appear in changing orders over time, and this should, in general, not be considered a breaking change.

However, library tests that use this helper function will fail when diagnostic order changes.
It's onerous for every library test author to have to add a wrapper to pre-sort the collections; rather the core library should have a mode that enables this with a simple binary switch, as an addition to the options object.

The existing strict option could be used, but that would technically be a behavioral breaking change to the test condition.

Current

compiler/expect.ts/expectDiagnostics(
  diagnostics: readonly Diagnostic[],
  match: DiagnosticMatch | DiagnosticMatch[],
  options = {
    strict: true,
  });

Expected

compiler/expect.ts/expectDiagnostics(
  diagnostics: readonly Diagnostic[],
  match: DiagnosticMatch | DiagnosticMatch[],
  options = {
    strict: true,
    fixedOrder: true
  });

That would be nice but I think in general it would be better practice to make sure your test only emit a single diagnostic.
Not doing order makes it also potentially harder to see what isn't matching(would just be able to say didn't find this exect diagnostic in this list).

Have expectDiagnostics sort the diagnostics

I would like to work on this
