Make panic message less confusing

Browse source 
The panic message when slicing a string with a negative length range (eg
`"abcdef"[4..3]`) is confusing: it gives the condition that failed to hold,
whilst all the other panic messages give the condition that did hold.

Before:
begin <= end (4 <= 3) when slicing `abcdef`

After:
begin > end (4 > 3) when slicing `abcdef`
