// Stable sorting that works in O(N*log(N)) worst time
// and uses O(1) extra memory
//
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// The main idea of the adaptive_sort algorithm was developed by Andrey Astrelin
// and explained in the article from the russian collaborative blog
// Habrahabr (http://habrahabr.ru/post/205290/). The algorithm is based on
// ideas from B-C. Huang and M. A. Langston explained in their article
// "Fast Stable Merging and Sorting in Constant Extra Space (1989-1992)"
// (http://comjnl.oxfordjournals.org/content/35/6/643.full.pdf).
//
// This implementation by Ion Gaztanaga uses previous ideas with additional changes:
// 
// - Use of GCD-based rotation.
// - Non power of two buffer-sizes.
// - Tries to find sqrt(len)*2 unique keys, so that the merge sort
//   phase can form up to sqrt(len)*4 segments if enough keys are found.
// - The merge-sort phase can take advantage of external memory to
//   save some additional combination steps.
// - Combination phase: Blocks are selection sorted and merged in parallel.
// - The combination phase is performed alternating merge to left and merge
//   to right phases minimizing swaps due to internal buffer repositioning.
// - When merging blocks special optimizations are made to avoid moving some
//   elements twice.
//
// The adaptive_merge algorithm was developed by Ion Gaztanaga reusing some parts
// from the sorting algorithm and implementing an additional block merge algorithm
// without moving elements to left or right.
