Lint singleton gaps after exclusive ranges
In the discussion to stabilize exclusive range patterns (#37854), it has often come up that they're likely to cause off-by-one mistakes. We already have the `overlapping_range_endpoints` lint, so I [proposed](#37854 (comment)) a lint to catch the complementary mistake.
This PR adds a new `non_contiguous_range_endpoints` lint that catches likely off-by-one errors with exclusive range patterns. Here's the idea (see the test file for more examples):
```rust
match x {
0..10 => ..., // WARN: this range doesn't match `10_u8` because `..` is an exclusive range
11..20 => ..., // this could appear to continue range `0_u8..10_u8`, but `10_u8` isn't matched by either of them
_ => ...,
}
// help: use an inclusive range instead: `0_u8..=10_u8`
```
More precisely: for any exclusive range `lo..hi`, if `hi+1` is matched by another range but `hi` isn't, we suggest writing an inclusive range `lo..=hi` instead. We also catch `lo..T::MAX`.
