gdb: introduce iterator_range, remove next_adapter
I was always a bit confused by next_adapter, because it kind of mixes
the element type and the iterator type. In reality, it is not much more
than a class that wraps two iterators (begin and end). However, it
assumes that:
- you can construct the begin iterator by passing a pointer to the
first element of the iterable
- you can default-construct iterator to make the end iterator
I think that by generalizing it a little bit, we can re-use it at more
places.
Rename it to "iterator_range". I think it describes a bit better: it's
a range made by wrapping a begin and end iterator. Move it to its own
file, since it's not related to next_iterator anymore.
iterator_range has two constructors. The variadic one, where arguments
are forwarded to construct the underlying begin iterator. The end
iterator is constructed through default construction. This is a
generalization of what we have today.
There is another constructor which receives already constructed begin
and end iterators, useful if the end iterator can't be obtained by
default-construction. Or, if you wanted to make a range that does not
end at the end of the container, you could pass any iterator as the
"end".
This generalization allows removing some "range" classes, like
all_inferiors_range. These classes existed only to pass some arguments
when constructing the begin iterator. With iterator_range, those same
arguments are passed to the iterator_range constructed and then
forwarded to the constructed begin iterator.
There is a small functional difference in how iterator_range works
compared to next_adapter. next_adapter stored the pointer it received
as argument and constructeur an iterator in the `begin` method.
iterator_range constructs the begin iterator and stores it as a member.
Its `begin` method returns a copy of that iterator.
With just iterator_range, uses of next_adapter<foo> would be replaced
with:
using foo_iterator = next_iterator<foo>;
using foo_range = iterator_range<foo_iterator>;
However, I added a `next_range` wrapper as a direct replacement for
next_adapter<foo>. IMO, next_range is a slightly better name than
next_adapter.
The rest of the changes are applications of this new class.
