Make the fragment matcher deterministic (#10214)

* Make the fragment matcher deterministic

This exposes a new plugin option `deterministic` that when enabled will
ensure that the fragment matcher will always return the same result for
the same schema, no matter the order it is in the schema.

It does this by sorting the results so that they are always in the same
order.

The default is `false` to maintain backwards compatibility.

This fixes #7367

* Add missing changeset
