/**
* Binary search of a sorted array.
*
* The array should be sorted in ascending order according to the given
* comparison function.
*
* The comparison function must return an integer less than, equal to, or
* greater than zero if the first argument (the key) is considered to be
* respectively less than, equal to, or greater than the second.
*
* If there are multiple elements that match the key it is not specified which
* element is returned.
*
* The comparison function receives the key object and a pointer to an array
* element (esize != 0) or an actual pointer (esize = 0).
*
* @param array array to search, or NULL
* @param key key to search for
* @param cmp comparison function
* @param data data to copy element to, or NULL
* @return index of the element if found, -1 if not
