Description
How should LogRange::mapRange behave when either min or max is non-zero but smaller than the provided threshold?
As it stands, we will get a "wider" range for mapRange(1e-20, 1) than we will for (0, 1), which doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. We should add some tests for these and check what it really should do for proper behaviour.

I've persuaded myself that the current behaviour is OK, thinking of the threshold value as a sort of substitute for the singularity at 0 rather than an actual threshold. I've added some unit tests that document and ratify this situation.
