ninjabackend: stabilize order of dependencies and order-only dependencies

These do not go into the command line, and therefore do not matter
for the purpose of avoiding unnecessary rebuilds after meson is
rerun.  However, they complicate the task of finding differences
between build lines across meson reruns.

So take the easy way out and sort everything after | and ||.
With this change, there is absolutely no change in QEMU's 40000-line
build.ninja file after meson is rerun.
