/**
* \class InsertSort
* \brief Insertion sort an array of data.
*
* InsertSort can be used to sort any array of objects of type T provided a
* compare class is given. InsertSort is in-place. It does not require any
* temporary storage.
*
* Objects are not made aware that they are being moved around in memory.
* Assignment operators, constructors and destructors are never invoked by the
* sort.
*
* InsertSort runs in O(n^2) time. It is most useful when sorting small arrays.
* where it can outperform the O(n*log(n)) sorters due to its simplicity.
* InsertSort is a not a stable sort. Elements with the same key will not have
* their relative ordering preserved.
