Count Inversions

/**
 * @file
 * @brief Counting Inversions using [Merge
 Sort](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_sort)
 *
 * @details
 * Program to count the number of inversions in an array
 * using merge-sort.
 *
 * The count of inversions help to determine how close the array
 * is to be sorted in ASCENDING order.
 *
 * two elements a[i] and a[j] form an inversion if `a[i]` > `a[j]` and i < j
 *
 * Time Complexity --> `O(n.log n)`

 * Space Complexity --> `O(n)` ; additional array `temp[1..n]`
 * ### Algorithm

 *   1. The idea is similar to merge sort, divide the array into two equal or
 almost
 *      equal halves in each step until the base case is reached.
 *   2. Create a function merge that counts the number of inversions when two
 halves of
 *      the array are merged, create two indices i and j, i is the index for
 first half
 *      and j is an index of the second half. if `a[i]` is greater than `a[j]`,
 then there are (mid – i)
 *      inversions, Because left and right subarrays are sorted, so all the
 remaining elements
 *      in left-subarray (a[i+1], a[i+2] … a[mid]) will be greater than a[j].
 *   3. Create a recursive function to divide the array into halves and find the
 answer by summing
 *      the number of inversions is the first half, number of inversion in the
 second half and
 *      the number of inversions by merging the two.
 *   4. The base case of recursion is when there is only one element in the
 given half.
 *   5. Print the answer
