[swift-evolution] Add ability to validate collection indices

Hello everyone! Currently, indices of a collection might be invalidated due to call to any mutating method of the object. Assume, you have two indices - they point to the first and the last elements of an array - and you call removeLast() routine. The latter index would be invalidated during thi
