[New-bugs-announce] [issue32506] dataclasses: no need for OrderedDict now that dict guarantees to keep insertion order

[Eric V. Smith]

New submission from Eric V. Smith <eric at trueblade.com>:

There are several places where OrderedDict escapes from dataclasses. Switching to dict means we don't have to use OrderedDict forever.

For the 3.6 backport, I'm also going to use dict. I saw an analysis (from Raymond, maybe?) that says there are no 3.6 implementations that don't guarantee insertion order for dict.
