Bug description:Modify range() function to support A to ZZZZ

Description:
------------
This is a low low low priority feature request, but it would be nice if the
range() function supported letters beyond just A to Z. 



For example:



echo count(range('A','ZZZZ')); 



returns 26, but in many other languages once you get to Z it continues to
AA



For example in perl: 

perl -e '$_=()=A..ZZZZ;print'



you get 475254





Test script:
---------------
$a = count(range('A','ZZZZ')); 



if ($a == 475254 ) { 

  echo 'RANGE IS WORKING!'

} else { 

  echo 'RANGE STOPS AT Z. Foo. '

}

Expected result:
----------------
RANGE IS WORKING!

Actual result:
--------------
RANGE STOPS AT Z. Foo.
