This restores the original binary search implementation from #45333
which has the nice property of having a loop count that only depends on
the size of the slice. This, along with explicit conditional moves
from #128250, means that the entire binary search loop can be perfectly
predicted by the branch predictor.
Additionally, LLVM is able to unroll the loop when the slice length is
known at compile-time. This results in a very compact code sequence of
3-4 instructions per binary search step and zero branches.
Fixes#53823
