The interactive `add` command allows selecting multiple files for some
of its sub-commands, via unique prefixes, indices or index ranges.

When re-implementing `git add -i` in C, we even added a code comment
talking about ranges with a missing end index, such as `2-`, but the
code did not actually accept those, as pointed out in
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/2466#issuecomment-574142760.

Let's fix this, and add a test case to verify that this stays fixed
forever.

Good.  We do not allow "everything up to N" with "-N", so covering
"N and everything after" with "N-" is sufficient.

Even worse, `-N` means "toggle N off". But that can't be fixed easily as
it has been part of the UI for ages.

Thanks,

There is no loss.  "N-" is useful because you do not necessarily
know what the maximum is, but "everything up to N" will always be
"1-N" and you do not know what the minimum is.

So, there is not even worse there at all ;-)
