Challenge 8: Verify safety and sorting correctness of SmallSort

Add Kani proof harnesses for all 7 SmallSort functions specified in
Challenge #8. Proves absence of undefined behavior AND sorting
correctness (output is sorted) for the 3 small_sort trait
implementations. Covers swap_if_less, insertion_sort_shift_left,
sort4_stable, has_efficient_in_place_swap, and all 3 SmallSort
trait variants. Resolves #56
