I'm not a huge fan of using the @slice(arr, start, end) syntax for slicing iterables in the template module. However, fixing it to work more like zig's arr[start..end] syntax means some refactoring of how expressions are parsed, and initial attempts to do so caused segfaults in the compiler. maybe consider fixing this later

Alright I managed to sidestep the compilation errors but supporting arr[start..end] would require changing the argument syntax from .arg to... idk. something else. Which I've thought about doing but haven't decided on yet.
