1) The SizedRange concept specifies the requirements of a `Range` type that knows its size in constant time with the size function.

Formally, given an lvalue t of type std::remove_reference_t <T>, T models SizedRange only if

- ranges::size(t)

  - has non-amortized constant-time complexity,
  - does not modify t, and
  - is equal to ranges::distance(t), and

- if iterator_t<T> models `ForwardIterator`, ranges::size(t) is well-defined regardless of the evaluation of ranges::begin(t) (in other words, a single-pass sized range may support a call to size only before the first call to begin, but a forward range must support size at all times)

2) disable_sized_range exists to allows use of range types that satisfy but do not in fact model SizedRange.
