Move bsearch_arg to src/port

Until now the bsearch_arg function was used only in extended statistics
code, so it was defined in that code.  But we already have qsort_arg in
src/port, so let's move it next to it.

+ * to item 3 and make lim 2 so that we will look at items 3 and 4.
+ * If lim is even, however, we have to shrink it by one before
+ * halving: e.g., when lim is 4, we still looked at item 2, so we
