[heading Description]
`stable_partition` reorders the elements in the range `rng` base on the function object `pred`. Once this function has completed all of the elements that satisfy `pred` appear before all of the elements that fail to satisfy it. `stable_partition` differs from `partition` because it preserves relative order. It is stable.
For the versions that return an iterator, the return value is the iterator to the first element that fails to satisfy `pred`.
For versions that return a `range_return`, the `found` iterator is the iterator to the first element that fails to satisfy `pred`.
[heading Definition]
Defined in the header file `boost/range/algorithm/stable_partition.hpp`
[heading Requirements]
* `ForwardRange` is a model of the __forward_range__ Concept.
* `ForwardRange` is mutable.
* `UnaryPredicate` is a model of the `PredicateConcept`.
[heading Complexity]
Best case: `O(N)` where `N` is `distance(rng)`.
Worst case: `N * log(N)` swaps, where `N` is `distance(rng)`.
