This struct and the associated functions
char_range_at
andchar_range_at_reverse
have been unstable for some time now, and it looks likewith a combination of
char_at
pluschar_at_reverse
pluslen_utf8
that thestructure isn't necessary at this time.
The structure and perhaps more fanciful unicode processing support could be
added at a later date, but for now the types are being deprecated and slated for
removal.
Any code currently using
CharRange
can instead use thechar_at
andchar_at_reverse
methods plus thelen_utf8
method onchar
as a replacement.Closes #9387
