Simon Zünd 5a3893958a [array] Move Array.p.sort to Torque and use TimSort instead of QuickSort
This CL changes the sorting algorithm used in Array.p.sort from
QuickSort to TimSort (implemented in Torque).

Detailed performance results can be found here: https://goo.gl/4E733J

To save on code space, fast-paths are implemented as sets of
function pointers instead of specializing generics.
