  28  * @brief Sort algorithm for sorting items of KFileItemModel.
  29  *
  30  * Sorts the items by using KFileItemModel::lessThan() as comparison criteria.
  31  * The merge sort algorithm is used to assure a worst-case
  32  * of O(n * log(n)) and to keep the number of comparisons low.
  33  *
  34  * The implementation is based on qStableSortHelper() from qalgorithms.h
  35  * Copyright (C) 2011 Nokia Corporation and/or its subsidiary(-ies).
  36  * The sorting implementations of qAlgorithms could not be used as they
  37  * don't support having a member-function as comparison criteria.
