Is this something that could be applied to variables or types (I've not
much experience with GCC attribute internal mechanisms, so maybe not)?

For example:

```
// This variable must be in range.
int percentage __attribute__((inrange(0, 100)));
// Any variable declared through this typedef must be in range.
typedef int __attribute__((inrange(0, 100))) percentage_t;
```
