I'm not clear on how LAA uses this property, but I think this function should mention what kind of no-wrap (signed or unsigned) behavior it is trying to prove.  IOW, Ptr is supposed to be  monotonically increasing/decreasing in the signed or unsigned sense?

What if `OBO` is `nuw` (and not `nsw`) and `OpAR` is `nsw` (and not `nuw`)?  Or vice-versa?
