/**
 *  The {@code InsertionX} class provides static methods for sorting
 *  an array using an optimized version of insertion sort (with half exchanges
 *  and a sentinel).
 *  <p>
 *  In the worst case, this implementation makes ~ 1/2 <em>n</em><sup>2</sup>
 *  compares to sort an array of length <em>n</em>.
 *  So, it is not suitable for sorting large arrays
 *  (unless the number of inversions is small).
 *  <p>
 *  This sorting algorithm is stable.
 *  It uses &Theta;(1) extra memory (not including the input array).
 *  <p>
 *  For additional documentation, see
 *  <a href="https://algs4.cs.princeton.edu/21elementary">Section 2.1</a> of
 *  <i>Algorithms, 4th Edition</i> by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne.
