pkgfmt does odd things if comment-conditionals and whitespace combine

[richlowe]

Merging arm64-gate to illumos-gate this morning, I hit upon changes to pkg:/system/ficl that completely mis-sorted the manifest.
I think this is because the conditions for $(i386_ONLY) are followed by spaces, and so they get sorted to the top as if they were different actions file dir etc. They shouldn't, pkgfmt should eat that whitespace or something.

I am aware that this is likely at best difficult and at worst impossible to coordinate an update to fix, given that illumos-gate enforces this and distribution-drift would be difficult to deal with, but thought it should be recorded.

for posterity, what pkgfmt does is this

#
# The default for payload-bearing actions in this package is to appear in the
# global zone only.  See the include file for greater detail, as well as
# information about overriding the defaults.

I'll at least fix the two affected manifests upstream with https://www.illumos.org/issues/15527
Fixing pkgfmt is, as you say, hard to coördinate and may need introduction of a v3 format.
