last-exclusive progressions (i.e., "until" progressions and loop over
array indices).
This change makes it possible to correctly implement the handling of
"step" progressions. Computing the last element of a stepped progression
requires that the last is inclusive.
Also invert the while loop (into if + do-while) that is used when
lowering for-loops over progressions that cannot overflow. This keeps
the performance characteristics closer to the ForLoopsLowering in
kotlin-native, since the goal is to converge to this shared version.
Also used IrType instead of KotlinType, where possible.

NB: for-in-until loop is generated as precondition loop, because the
corresponding range is right-exclusive (and thus we have no problems
with integer overflows).
