Currently, for libstdc++, only iota_view and repeat_view use integer-class
types.
libc++ doesn't have integer-class types, not sure why they intended not to
implement one.
MSVC-STL uses this type in other places, such as the difference type of
cartesian_product in some cases.

It is reasonable to infer that this integer-class type will be used in
libstdc++'s cartesian_product_view in the future because there is a *TODO*
there, or it may be used to join_view or concat_view to resolve LWG 3666
<https://cplusplus.github.io/LWG/issue3666> or LWG 4073
<https://cplusplus.github.io/LWG/issue4073>.
