BUG: Prevent segfault in roll_weighted_var (pandas-dev#46772)

* Change range to prevent segfault

See pandas-dev#46760

* Update v1.5.0.rst with doc of fix for issue 46760

* typo

* Improve language for fix of weighted variance segfault

* Added test for issue pandas-dev#46772

* style - change single quotes to double

* Add fixtures `win_types` and `center` to test signature
