Add smooth sort algorithm implementation
- Pure Python implementation of Dijkstra's smoothsort algorithm - Uses Leonardo heap structure for O(n) best case on sorted data - Includes comprehensive doctests with various edge cases - Follows repository coding standards with type hints and docstrings - In-place sorting with O(1) space complexity

"""
2+
A pure Python implementation of the smooth sort algorithm.
3+
4+
Smoothsort is an in-place comparison-based sorting algorithm designed by
5+
Edsger W. Dijkstra in 1981. It is a variation of heapsort that uses a
6+
sequence of Leonardo heaps (Leonardo numbers are similar to Fibonacci).
7+
8+
Properties:
9+
- In-place: Yes (uses O(1) extra memory)
10+
- Stable: No
11+
- Best case: O(n) when data is already sorted
12+
- Average/Worst case: O(n log n)
13+
14+

15+
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoothsort
16+
17+
For doctests run following command:
18+
python3 -m doctest -v smooth_sort.py
19+
20+
For manual testing run:
21+
python3 smooth_sort.py
