Implementation of builtin functions in bytecode occasionally results into some complex bugs. As for range/2, there was #886, which was fixed by a47b329. But I think the implementation is complicated enough and it's worth make it simple by jq-coded function. The RANGE is unnecessary and reducing the instructions simplifies the interpreter loop.
