-- stable sorting routines for lua
--
--	modifies the global table namespace so you don't have
--	to re-require it everywhere.
--
--		table.stable_sort
--			a fast stable sort
--		table.unstable_sort
--			alias for the builtin unstable table.sort
--		table.insertion_sort
--			an insertion sort, should you prefer it
