   --  Search for element in sorted container. Function Before should return
   --  True when Left and Right are in the container's sort order and not
   --  equal. Function Get returns the container element indexed by Index;
   --  Index will be in the range First .. Last. If there is at least one index
   --  value in the range First .. Last for which Get would return Element,
   --  then the Leftmost generic parameter indicates whether the least (if
   --  Leftmost is True) or the greatest (if Leftmost is False) such index
   --  value is returned. If no such index value exists, then Leftmost
   --  determines whether to return the greater (if Leftmost is True) or the
   --  smaller (if Leftmost is False) of the two index values between which
   --  Element could be inserted. If First > Last (so that a null range is
   --  being searched), some Index_Type'Base value will be returned.
   --  Start is the index for the first probe of the binary search. It can
   --  improve speed of many search operations when user can guess the most
   --  likely values. If you do not know what value should be used there, use
   --  (First + Last) / 2.
