/* Perform a binary search of an array of values.
 * 
 * The parameters index_lo and index_hi provide an initial bracket,
 * and it is assumed that index_lo < index_hi. The resulting index
 * is guaranteed to be strictly less than index_hi and greater than
 * or equal to index_lo, so that the implicit bracket [index, index+1]
 * always corresponds to a region within the implicit value range of
 * the value array.
 *
 * Note that this means the relationship of 'x' to x_array[index]
 * and x_array[index+1] depends on the result region, i.e. the
 * behaviour at the boundaries may not correspond to what you
 * expect. We have the following complete specification of the
 * behaviour.
 * Suppose the input is x_array[] = { x0, x1, ..., xN }
 *    if ( x == x0 )           then  index == 0
 *    if ( x > x0 && x <= x1 ) then  index == 0, and sim. for other interior pts
 *    if ( x == xN )           then  index == N-1
 *    if ( x > xN )            then  index == N-1
 *    if ( x < x0 )            then  index == 0
