/**
 * A selection object simply represents a range in time, via start and
 * end frame.
 *
 * The end frame is the index of the frame just *after* the end of the
 * selection. For example a selection of length 10 frames starting at
 * time 0 will have start frame 0 and end frame 10. This will be
 * contiguous with (rather than overlapping with) a selection that
 * starts at frame 10.
 *
 * Any selection with equal start and end frames is empty,
 * representing "no selection". All empty selections are equal under
 * the comparison operators. The default constructor makes an empty
 * selection with start and end frames equal to zero.
