Description
A few problems with this extension function.
- It has the same bug #6029 as
fn:items-at()(which reused the same code) - the results are incorrect if the second argument is an integer range such as 4 to 6. - I can't find any test cases
- The documentation lists a number of examples in which an argument to the function uses the syntax "M by S to N" which has never been fully implemented, tested, or documented, and which is about to be withdrawn on the grounds that it's no longer being actively proposed for XPath 4.0

Firstly, I've fixed the bug.
Secondly, I've added test cases to qt3extra.
Thirdly, I'm updating the documentation to remove the offending examples and to add information on the status of the function.
