11287	adaptors: strided does not support input iterators	Akim Demaille <akim.demaille@…>	Neil Groves	"Hi,

Despite what the documentation says, the stride adaptor does not support input iterators.  This is a pity, since for instance its applicability to iterators to coroutines: see #11274.

Oliver Kowalke tracked down the issue, and built a small scale example that shows the problem: see http://lists.boost.org/boost-users/2015/05/84277.php.  The example is repeated below:
