value-range.h: Fix typo in comment

A stray slash is removed from a comment in `value-range.h`.

A stray forward slash was present in the comments in value-range.h. This commit removes it. The change is purely cosmetic, without behavioral consequences.

In Details

This commit addresses a minor typo in a comment within value-range.h, introduced by a prior change (r17-312-g423eb6def78cfd). This file is part of GCC's value range propagation infrastructure. The change is isolated and doesn't impact the functionality or interfaces of the surrounding code.

For Context

Value range propagation is a compiler optimization technique where the compiler tries to determine the possible range of values a variable can hold during program execution. This information allows the compiler to perform more aggressive optimizations, such as dead code elimination or strength reduction. This commit fixes an insignificant typo in a comment related to this optimization.
