faq: Sort BLODA list and update advice on fixing fork failures

	* faq-using.xml (bloda): Alphabetically sort BLODA list for ease
	of finding things in it.
	(fixing-fork-failures): Update to suggest rebase-trigger rather
	than running rebaseall via dash yourself.  Mention detect_bloda
	CYGWIN token.
