t4211: retire soon-to-be unimplementable tests
5896097 and 99780b0 added tests which demonstrated bugs (crashes) in range-set and line-log when handed empty ranges specified via "log -LX:file" where X is one greater than the last line of the file. After these tests were added, it was realized that the ability to specify an empty range is a loophole due to a bug in -L bounds checking. That bug is slated to be fixed in a subsequent patch. Unfortunately, the closure of this loophole makes it impossible to continue checking range-set and line-log behavior with regard to empty ranges since there is no other way to specify empty ranges via the command-line. APIs of both facilities are private (file static) so there likewise is no way to test their behaviors programmatically. Consequently, retire these two tests.
