to make qsort more robust: * use "ninther" to choose pivot. * use three-way partition to avoid quadratic behavior on all-one-value arrays. also add tests suggested in that paper. the immediate cause of the slowness we observed was in fact none of these: the recursive call was sorting data[0:m] instead of data[a:m]. also rename package to "sort" to match convention.
