Since the order of keys in JSON filenames is not necessarily fixed, they
should not be compared to fixed strings. This method takes a Python dict
as a reference, parses a given JSON filename and compares both.

Why do we have to flatten the dicts instead of comparing them directly?

Anyway, it seems to be correct:

Well, I believe flattened and unflattened dicts to be equal when it
comes to JSON filenames, and I wanted to express this here. This is my
personal opinion, though, and I can see how others might disagree.

In any case, the block layer does not necessarily report JSON filenames
fully unflattened, at least not today. The test added in patch 13
compares these filenames against unflattened dicts, however, because
that was simpler to write. So there's a practical reason for flattening
them.

Maybe unflattening (or crumpling) the block layer options will be our
next great project. :-)
