Updated patch by Andrey Chernov

I updated the testing utility with 4096 datapoints of random data and
I did some very basic testing with an updated patch from Andrey :

$ time ./test-heapsort
1..1
ok 1 - heapsort
       27.83 real        27.61 user         0.00 sys
$ time ./test-mergesort
1..1
ok 1 - mergesort
       27.02 real        26.83 user         0.00 sys
$ time ./test-qsort (old)
1..1
ok 1 - qsort
       27.07 real        26.94 user         0.00 sys
...
$ time ./test-qsort (new)
1..1
ok 1 - qsort
       26.94 real        26.81 user         0.00 sys
___ 

IMHO. the performance improvements are measurable, and even when they may not
seem huge, they are significant enough to make qsort preferable over heapsort
and mergesort (at least for my particular dataset).
