Would it make sense to move iterator_range to this library as well?
(given the fact it was requested to be separated from the string algo lib
during the review)
After all, it is a minimal encapsulation of the Range concept. If
the library will not be only about the traits, it might be natural to
put it there.

Just my thoughts.
