/**
 * Canonical element order for AxTable XML.
 *
 * AxTable documents are ORDER-SENSITIVE and the deserializer drops misordered
 * property elements SILENTLY: the property is physically in the file, `validate_code`
 * happily reports "no violations", and xppbp then complains that it is missing
 * (BPErrorTableTitleField1NotDeclared / BPErrorLabelNotDefined /
 * BPErrorDeveloperDocumentationNotDefined) with no clue why.
 * See the 2026-07-21 eval sweep, finding #13.
 *
 * Ground truth for the order below:
 *   - eval/goldens/L1-table-basic/DemoAgentNote.metadata.xml (VM-captured, built clean):
 *       Label → TableGroup → TitleField1 → TitleField2 →
 *       CacheLookup → ClusteredIndex → PrimaryIndex → ReplacementKey → DeleteActions
 *   - the sweep's own comparison against the shipped CustGroup.xml.
 *
 * Two blocks, each internally alphabetical:
 *   1. the "always serialised" block (ConfigurationKey … TitleField2)
 *   2. the extended/optional block (CacheLookup … TableType)
 * Collections (<DeleteActions>, <FieldGroups>, <Fields>, …) follow both.
