Merge #11872: [rpc] createrawtransaction: Accept sorted outputs

fac70134a rpc: Update createrawtransaction examples (MarcoFalke)
fa06dfce0 [rpc] createrawtransaction: Accept sorted outputs (MarcoFalke)
8acd25d85 rpc: Allow typeAny in RPCTypeCheck (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  The second parameter of the `createrawtransaction` is a dictionary of the outputs. This comes with at least two drawbacks:

  * In case of duplicate keys, either of them might silently disappear, with no user feedback at all. A user needs to make other mistakes, but this could eventually lead to abnormal tx fees.
  * A dictionary does not guarantee that keys are sorted. Again, a user needs to keep this in mind, as it could eventually lead to excessive tx fees.

  Even though my scenario of loss-of-funds is unlikely to happen, I see it as a inconvenience that should be fixed.
