/*
* The BinarySearch() algorithm searches the given container |aContainer| over
* the sorted index range [aBegin, aEnd) for an index |i| where
* |aContainer[i] == aTarget|.
* If such an index |i| is found, BinarySearch returns |true| and the index is
* returned via the outparam |aMatchOrInsertionPoint|. If no index is found,
* BinarySearch returns |false| and the outparam returns the first index in
* [aBegin, aEnd] where |aTarget| can be inserted to maintain sorted order.
*
* Example:
*
* Vector<int> sortedInts = ...
*
* size_t match;
* if (BinarySearch(sortedInts, 0, sortedInts.length(), 13, &match)) {
* printf("found 13 at %lu\n", match);
* }
*
* The BinarySearchIf() version behaves similarly, but takes |aComparator|, a
* functor to compare the values with, instead of a value to find.
* That functor should take one argument - the value to compare - and return an
* |int| with the comparison result:
*
* * 0, if the argument is equal to,
* * less than 0, if the argument is greater than,
* * greater than 0, if the argument is less than
*
* the value.
*
* Example:
*
* struct Comparator {
* int operator()(int aVal) const {
* if (mTarget < aVal) { return -1; }
* if (mTarget > aVal) { return 1; }
* return 0;
* }
* explicit Comparator(int aTarget) : mTarget(aTarget) {}
* const int mTarget;
* };
*
* Vector<int> sortedInts = ...
*
* size_t match;
* if (BinarySearchIf(sortedInts, 0, sortedInts.length(), Comparator(13), &match)) {
* printf("found 13 at %lu\n", match);
* }
*
