> Sorting:
> 
> - adopt radix sort for sequential and parallel sorts on int/long/float/double arrays (almost random and length > 6K)
> - fix tryMergeRuns() to better handle case when the last run is a single element
> - minor javadoc and comment changes
> 
> Testing:
> - add new data inputs in tests for sorting
> - add min/max/infinity values to float/double testing
> - add tests for radix sort
