Description

Reloctor::checkUnsignedRange simply reports the overflow error instead of checking and reporting if overflowed. We should either rename the function or actually check the range within in.

Research direction
Locate the `Relocator::checkUnsignedRange` function in the codebase, understand its current behavior, and examine how it is called. Determine whether renaming or implementing the range check is the correct fix, and look for existing tests related to unsigned range checking.
