Description

Most implementations of merge sort use extra space to merge arrays. For this issue, implement an in-place merge sort that:
Does not use additional arrays during the merge step
Uses index manipulation or swaps to keep space usage minimal
Includes proper time and space complexity in comments
Adds sample input/output in a README.md inside your language folder
