normalize formal order on ExprLambda::show

Browse source 
we already normalize attr order to lexicographic, doing the same for
formals makes sense. doubly so because the order of formals would
otherwise depend on the context of the expression, which is not quite as
useful as one might expect.

synopsis: consistent order of lambda formals in printed expressions
prs: 9874
---
Always print lambda formals in lexicographic order rather than the internal, creation-time based symbol order.
This makes printed formals independent of the context they appear in.
