Subject: [PATCH] specialize StepBy<Range(Inclusive)>

the originally generated code was highly suboptimal
this brings it close to the same code or even exactly the same as a
manual while-loop by eliminating a branch and the
double stepping of n-1 + 1 steps

The intermediate trait lets us circumvent the specialization
type inference bugs
