Improve the performance of binary_search by reducing the number of
unpredictable conditional branches in the loop. In addition improve the
benchmarks to test performance in l1, l2 and l3 caches on sorted arrays
with or without dups.
Before:
```
test slice::binary_search_l1 ... bench: 48 ns/iter (+/- 1)
test slice::binary_search_l2 ... bench: 63 ns/iter (+/- 0)
test slice::binary_search_l3 ... bench: 152 ns/iter (+/- 12)
test slice::binary_search_l1_with_dups ... bench: 36 ns/iter (+/- 0)
test slice::binary_search_l2_with_dups ... bench: 64 ns/iter (+/- 1)
test slice::binary_search_l3_with_dups ... bench: 153 ns/iter (+/- 6)
```
After:
```
test slice::binary_search_l1 ... bench: 15 ns/iter (+/- 0)
test slice::binary_search_l2 ... bench: 23 ns/iter (+/- 0)
test slice::binary_search_l3 ... bench: 100 ns/iter (+/- 17)
test slice::binary_search_l1_with_dups ... bench: 15 ns/iter (+/- 0)
test slice::binary_search_l2_with_dups ... bench: 23 ns/iter (+/- 0)
test slice::binary_search_l3_with_dups ... bench: 98 ns/iter (+/- 14)
```
