Inserts an item in its sorted position into an already sorted collection. This is useful if you need to consume the collection in between insertions and need it to stay correctly sorted the whole time. If you just need to insert a bunch of items and then consume the sorted collection at the end, it's faster to add all the elements and then use Sort() at the end.
