David Benjamin 92e332501a Add a function for encoding SET OF.
The Chromium certificate verifier ends up encoding a SET OF when
canonicalizing X.509 names. Requiring the caller canonicalize a SET OF
is complicated enough that we should probably sort it for folks. (We
really need to get this name canonicalization insanity out of X.509...)

This would remove the extra level of indirection in Chromium
net/cert/internal/verify_name_match.cc CBB usage.

Note this is not quite the same order as SET, but SET is kind of
useless. Since it's encoding heterogeneous values, it is reasonable to
require the caller just encode them in the correct order. In fact, a DER
SET is just SEQUENCE with a post-processing step on the definition to
fix the ordering of the fields. (Unless the SET contains an untagged
CHOICE, in which case the ordering is weird, but SETs are not really
used in the real world, much less SETs with untagged CHOICEs.)
