This backports #580 to `v0.5-stable`. When `SequenceSet#max(n)` is called with `n > cardinality`, it _should_ return a duplicate of the whole set. But, `#max(n)` is implemented using `#slice(-n..)`, and (copying the behavior of `Array`), when a slicing starts from an out-of-range index, it returns `nil`. It was using `-[count, size].min` to keep the index from going out-of-range. Prior to 0.6.0, `#size` is the same as `#count`, so it gives incorrect results when the set contains an endless range. `SequenceSet#cardinality` has not been backported to 0.5, so this makes that calculation inline. This change should also give a small performance boost, because it bypasses the complexity of `#slice(range)` and just calls `#dup` (or returns `self` when the set is frozen).
