// QuickSort function for sorting arrays.  The array is sorted in place.
// Parameters:
//  * base:  Pointer to the initial element of the array
//  * num:   Number of elements in the array
//  * width: Width of each element in the array, in bytes
//  * comp:  Pointer to a function returning analog of strcmp for strings, but
//           supplied by the caller for comparing the array elements.  It
//           accepts two pointers to elements; returns negative if 1 < 2;
//           zero if 1 == 2, and positive if 1 > 2.
