We often want to generate deps like: ``` ${PYTHON_DEPS} <sys-devel/llvm-$((${LLVM_MAX_SLOT} + 1)):= || ( sys-devel/clang:14 sys-devel/clang:15 sys-devel/clang:${LLVM_MAX_SLOT} ) " ``` It's both a bit tedious to keep repeating it, but also error prone if you update LLVM_MAX_SLOT but forget to add an intermediate LLVM to the list. media-libs/mesa has a lot of machinery for this too. dwfreed suggests something like `llvm_slot_range_dep thing_you_want_to_depend_on lowest_slot highest_slot` (maybe with a param for usedep) too.
