Description

As of ES2020 object keys iteration order follows definition order in nearly all (if not all) methods of iteration thorough object properties.
Actual goal: order of properties must be controlled when it is important. We need to handle situations when definition order is not controlled at source (e.g. API responses, new literals do not follow implicit convention).
