 In this case the input array is not modified, but the user must provide an
 input index array with the same size as `array`, having unique indices from
 `1:size(array)`, which is modified instead. On return the index array is modified
 such that `all(array(index(1:k)) <= array(index(k)))` and `all(array(k) <= array(k+1:size(array)))`.
