Bug #16366: .count on endless range causes infinite loop
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16366

* Author: duffyjp (Jacob Duffy)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Target version: 
* ruby -v: ruby 2.6.5p114 (2019-10-01 revision 67812) [x86_64-darwin19]
* Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
Out of curiosity, I tried:

``` ruby
(1..).count
```

Which resulted in an unkillable 100% CPU irb session. 

I expected either an exception or maybe `Infinity`

Thanks
