Make it possible to only disassemble a range of timestamps or sample
indexes. This will be used by the test to limit the runtime, but it's
also useful for users.

It is good to validate the ranges for time and sample indexes, in case
the user passes unexpected values and can directly report the error.

BTW, I think it is good to clarify the time is based on monotonic clock
but not wall-clock time.

With above changes, LGTM:
