Describe the feature request
Add support for range sliders. Range sliders were added to the material spec a while back. But they're not yet supported by the MatSlider component.
Additional context
The MatSlider component currently does not support range sliders. It appears that this feature was added to the underlying @material/slider npm library in 8.0. The material components library is now on version 10.0 (which further improves the slider component by making it use input elements to improve accessibility).
Are there plans to update to the latest material components? I imagine this would be a fairly significant change. But it looks like there is little hope to supporting range sliders until this happens.

The changelog from the material components repo describes the changes to the slider in 8.0. https://github.com/material-components/material-components-web/blob/v8.0.0/CHANGELOG.md
It looks like compared to 8.0, the 9.0 and 10.0 releases were fairly minor. https://github.com/material-components/material-components-web/blob/v10.0.0/CHANGELOG.md
