Sure :)

Range is an in-built type of Ruby and it would be better for C extension
writers if there existed a constant `T_RANGE` that could be directly used
for checking whether a `VALUE` is a `Range`.

Currently we need to write `CLASS_OF(obj) == rb_cRange` in order to make this
happen. Having a `T_RANGE` would help in making C code more idiomatic and fast
in some cases.

That way, one can write `RB_TYPE_P(obj, T_RANGE)`.
