This is necessary not only for representing empty ranges, but for handling
multibyte characters in the input. (If the end pointer in a range refers to
a multibyte character, should it point to the beginning or the end of the
character in a char array?) Some of the code in the asm parsers was already
assuming this anyway.

the X86 asmparser to produce ranges in the one case that was annoying me, for example:
test.s:10:15: error: invalid operand for instruction
movl 0(%rax), 0(%edx)
^~~~~~~
It should be straight-forward to enhance filecheck, tblgen, and/or the .ll parser to use
ranges where appropriate if someone is interested.
