[kteam-tools PATCH] maint-getabis: ABI sorting with C locale

Whenever different people update a kernel ABI, it's possible a different locale
is used, and ABI is changed, though nothing has really changed. This causes
some spurios ABI changes that make it more difficult to review differentes
between releases.
