[BUG] [Regression] yaml output broken in 3006.8 about salt HOT 3 OPEN

I'm also facing this problem and it's a killer because we can't render runnable code w/ this broken. makes it very difficult to resume an orchestration.

@achalupa-ptc @SaherH As a quick workaround for this issue you can pipe the output from JSON to a simple Python script to convert the data to YAML.

# salt-run state.orch_show_sls testing.orch --output=json | ./converter.py

@doesitblend : thanks for the workaround it works but unfortunately it's not enough to reduce the pain for my use case. I'm typically rendering an orchestration or state using --out=yaml to resume an orchestration from where it failed. With the workaround it accurately renders the code as yaml but it does so in a random order. It's very time consuming to pick through the randomly ordered code to pick out the steps that haven't run yet.

First salt broke the ability to pass test=true -l debug as a way of rendering code. using --out=yaml was the workaround for this breakage and now this is broken :(.
