This removes a constant describing the length of the array.
The enumerated_range code had to be adapted, because the
interaction of C-type arrays with the C++ typesystem is mad.
With C-type arrays, one has to pass a reference to std::declval.

Search the index of an item in a container. Compare by
equality or a lambda. The lack of these have annoyed me for a
long time. Return the index of the first found element or
-1 if no element found.
Currently, only supports random-access operators. Might be
trivially changed for forward iterators.

In the printing-template code, we loop through a vector and
then determine the index of the current element by searching
the vector. This irks me.
Since looping over a collection with an index is a rather
common theme, implement an enumerating iterator that can
be used as in:
for (auto [idx, item]: enumerated_range(v)) {
...
}
For now, use it for the above vexing case. Convert other
iterations of this theme later.

The moveInVector() function was defined in qthelper.h, even
though it has nothing to do with Qt. Therefore, move it into
its own header.
Morover, since it is a very low-level function, use snake_case.
And rename it to move_in_range(), because it does not only
work on vectors, but any range with random-access iterators.
