Subject: [PATCH] Resolve potential reproducible build issues

GNU ease.js is a pretty trivial case with respect to reproducibility---not
much goes on during the build aside from concatenation and minification.
Non-determinism is essentially confined to filesystem operations, which can
be rectified by sorting using a static locale's collation sequence (which is
done here).

This does not resolve any concerns with autoconf-installed scripts (those in
tools/), or the distribution tarball file metadata.
