       29  * A stable, adaptive, iterative mergesort that requires far fewer than
       30  * n lg(n) comparisons when running on partially sorted arrays, while
       31  * offering performance comparable to a traditional mergesort when run
       32  * on random arrays.  Like all proper mergesorts, this sort is stable and
       33  * runs O(n log n) time (worst case).  In the worst case, this sort requires
       34  * temporary storage space for n/2 object references; in the best case,
       35  * it requires only a small constant amount of space.
       36  *
       37  * This implementation was adapted from Tim Peters's list sort for
       38  * Python, which is described in detail here:
       39  *
       40  *   http://svn.python.org/projects/python/trunk/Objects/listsort.txt
       41  *
       42  * Tim's C code may be found here:
       43  *
       44  *   http://svn.python.org/projects/python/trunk/Objects/listobject.c
       45  *
       46  * The underlying techniques are described in this paper (and may have
       47  * even earlier origins):

       53  *
       54  * While the API to this class consists solely of static methods, it is
       55  * (privately) instantiable; a TimSort instance holds the state of an ongoing
       56  * sort, assuming the input array is large enough to warrant the full-blown
       57  * TimSort. Small arrays are sorted in place, using a binary insertion sort.
