The RangeProtocol was a very weak and fragile abstraction because it
didn't specify the interpretation of the endpoints. To write a
non-trivial algorithm, one usually needed to consult that information.
The standard library code only actually worked correctly with half-open
and closed ranges (and didn't handle fully open ranges, for example).
The other two protocols, HalfOpenRangeProtocol and ClosedRangeProtocol,
were only used for code sharing, and present an ABI burden. We can use
gyb instead.
