Suppose a sorted array is rotated at some pivot unknown to you beforehand.

(i.e.,0 1 2 4 5 6 7might become4 5 6 7 0 1 2).

You are given a target value to search. If found in the array return its index, otherwise return -1.

You may assume no duplicate exists in the array.

思路：使用二分查找，若中间数大于等于最左端数，那左半部分必定有序，否则右半部分有序，通过将目标数与有序部分的最大与最小数比较来判断目标数位于哪一部分。复杂度O(logn)。

注意：此题边界情况，>,>=等需仔细考虑斟酌。
