It seems to me that `items[0…]` would be equivalent to `items[0…Int.max]` if
we’re going to treat `0…` as an “infinite" range, no? Otherwise, we’re either
giving subscript of InfiniteRange types special behavior or we’re making
subscript ignore past-the-end indices; `”hello”.characters[0…10]` would need to
return the same as “hello”.characters[0…4]` to be consistent.
