Force LLVM to use CMOV for binary search

Since https://reviews.llvm.org/D118118, LLVM will no longer turn CMOVs
into branches if it comes from a `select` marked with an `unpredictable`
metadata attribute.

This PR introduces `core::intrinsics::select_unpredictable` which emits
such a `select` and uses it in the implementation of `binary_search_by`.
