This test extracts values from a (key,value) map where multiple entries
can have the same key, and the entries are sorted by key, but not by
value. The test incorrectly assumes that the values will be sorted as
well, so sort the output.

a better version of the previous patch I sent with head/tail replaced by an awk
script by Tomi Ollila which is clearer, and comments added in the test for
clarity.
