Potentially breaking: Make hooks sort order locale-independent

Don't sort OCI hooks using the locale collation order; it does not
make sense for the same system-wide directory to be interpreted differently
depending on the user's LC_COLLATE setting, and the language-specific
collation order can even change over time.

Besides, the current collation order determination code has never worked
with the most common LC_COLLATE values like en_US.UTF-8.

Ideally, we would like to just order based on Unicode code points
to be reliably stable, but the existing implementation is case-insensitive,
so we are forced to rely on the unicode case mapping tables at least.

(This gives up on canonicalization and width-insensitivity, potentially
breaking users who rely on these previously documented properties.)
