Attempt to order Objects. Puts null at the beginning. Returns 0 for equal elements. Otherwise, orders by the result of toString().

Note: if toString returns a nondeterministic value, such as one that depends on the result of hashCode(), then this comparator may yield different orderings from run to run of a program.
