I was working away at some improvements for PS2 devices when I noticed that one
small change to the instantiation of a PS2 mouse device caused a regression in
tests/qtest/bios-tables-test, specifically the /x86_64/acpi/q35/viot subtest.

Closer examination of the failed test output showed the problem was that the
order of the PCI host bridge entries had changed within the table causing the
generated binary to fail to match the version in tests/data/acpi/q35/VIOT.viot.

The error occurs because there is no guarantee in the order of PCI host bridges
being returned from object_child_foreach_recursive() used within
hw/acpi/viot.c's build_viot() function, so any change to the QOM tree can
potentially change the generated ACPI VIOT table ordering and cause the
regression tests to fail.

Fortunately the solution is fairly easy: change build_viot() to build an array
of PCI host bridges and then sort them first before generating the final ACPI
VIOT table. I've chosen to sort the PCI host bridges based upon the min_bus
number which seems to work okay here.

The changes in this patchset were heavily inspired by the build_iort() function
in hw/arm/virt-acpi-build.c which already does the right thing here. Patches 1-5
make the required changes before patch 6 updates the VIOT binary to match the
updated ACPI VIOT table ordering.
