[YANGTOOLS-1421] Examine XML codec ordering in RPC/action input/output context

Fri, 5 Jan 2024 14:53:13 +0000

RFC6020 and RFC7950 require container contents to be ordered in schema declaration order:

   The container's child nodes are encoded as subelements to the
   container element.  If the container defines RPC or action input or
   output parameters, these subelements are encoded in the same order as
   they are defined within the "container" statement.  Otherwise, the
   subelements are encoded in any order.

Audit the XML codec to ensure we comply with this requirement when emitting NormalizedNode output. This may impact other statements as well.
