Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

To Reproduce
Nvim version 0.12.3
Latest version of this package and all other treesitter packages
Open c file

static
void uInt64_toAscii ( char* outbuf, UInt64* n )
{
Int32 i, q;
UChar buf[32];
Int32 nBuf = 0;
UInt64 n_copy = *n;
do {
q = uInt64_qrm10 ( &n_copy );
buf[nBuf] = q + '0';
nBuf++;
} while (!uInt64_isZero(&n_copy));
outbuf[nBuf] = 0;
for (i = 0; i < nBuf; i++)
outbuf[i] = buf[nBuf-i-1];
}

Try anything like a swap

require("nvim-treesitter-textobjects.swap").swap_next "@parameter.inner"

**Additional context**
Add any other context about the problem here.

Start by tracing the reported stack through lua/nvim-treesitter-textobjects/shared.lua at lines 42, 68, 154, and 157, then into swap.lua at lines 179 and 210. Reproduce the failure with the supplied C example and swap_next command; done means swapping C parameters no longer raises “No handler for make-range!”.
