Compare two symbols lexicographically, essentially composing
symbol->string with string<?, string>?,
string<=?, and string>=?.
Examples:
> (symbol<? 'bat 'cat) #t
> (symbol<? 'cat 'cat) #f
> (symbol<? 'cat 'bat) #f
> (symbol>? 'bat 'cat) #f
> (symbol>? 'cat 'cat) #f
> (symbol>? 'cat 'bat) #t
> (symbol<=? 'bat 'cat) #t
> (symbol<=? 'cat 'cat) #t
> (symbol<=? 'cat 'bat) #f
> (symbol>=? 'bat 'cat) #f
> (symbol>=? 'cat 'cat) #t
> (symbol>=? 'cat 'bat) #t
