[C++11] Add an iterator_range class template. This is modeled on the

proposed std::iterator_pair which was in committee suggested to move
toward std::iterator_range. There isn't a formal paper yet, but there
seems little disagreement within the committee at this point so it seems
fine to provide our own version in the llvm namespace so we can easily
build range adaptors for the numerous iterators in LLVM's interfaces.

Note that I'm not really comfortable advocating a crazed range-based
migration just yet. The range stuff is still in a great deal of flux in
C++ and the committee hasn't entirely made up its mind (afaict) about
how it will work. So I'm mostly trying to provide the minimal
functionality needed to make writing easy and convenient range adaptors
for range based for loops easy and convenient. ;]

Subsequent patches will use this across the fundamental IR types, where
there are iterator views.

+/// with range based for loops and range based constructors.
+///
+/// Note that code here follows more standards-based coding conventions as it
