Disallow reversed char ranges in `rx'
(any "a-Z0-9") generated "[0-9]", and (any (?9 . ?0)) generated "[9-0]". Reversed ranges are either mistakes or abuse. Neither should be allowed. etc/NEWS: Explain the change. lisp/emacs-lisp/rx.el (rx): Document. (rx-check-any-string, rx-check-any): Add error checks for reversed ranges. test/lisp/emacs-lisp/rx-tests.el (rx-char-any-range-bad): New test.
