Tox's ultra-concise environment naming creates some challenges when
using features like range expansions. If the user tries to define
a range like `py{39-314}`, they'll get a lot more than they bargained
for. Add a "Caution" box to the documentation about the range feature,
reminding users to consider what their ranges mean _numerically_,
rather than semantically.

A very minor documentation addition.
