Redis ZRANGEBYSCORE Replacement

Starting with Redis 6.2.0, the ZRANGE command added the REV, BYSCORE, BYLEX and LIMIT options. The addition of the first three options means that the ZRANGE command can now do what the ZREVRANGE, ZRANGEBYSCORE, ZREVRANGEBYSCORE, ZRANGEBYLEX and ZREVRANGEBYLEX commands can do.

Therefore, we should no longer use the ZRANGEBYSCORE command when we need to return a sorted set by score. Instead, we should use the ZRANGE command with the BYSCORE argument.
