Peter Hamilton 4938f82772 Sort the Locate matched objects by their creation date
This change updates the PyKMIP server's support for the Locate
operation, sorting the matched objects found by Locate by their
initial date, newest objects first. This matches the KMIP
specification's definition for how Locate results should be
ordered.

PyKMIP is a Python implementation of the Key Management Interoperability
Protocol (KMIP), an `OASIS`_ communication standard for the management of
objects stored and maintained by key management systems. KMIP defines how key
management operations and operation data should be encoded and communicated
between client and server applications. Supported operations include the full
`CRUD`_ key management lifecycle, including operations for managing object
metadata and for conducting cryptographic operations. Supported object types
include:

* symmetric/asymmetric encryption keys
* passwords/passphrases
* certificates
* opaque data blobs, and more

For more information on KMIP, check out the `OASIS KMIP Technical Committee`_
and the `OASIS KMIP Documentation`_.
