----------------
I think that's already covered by the current change, because isStridedPtr will add the predicates if needed (and I think this is only called from isStridedPtr).

This should be better because isStridedPtr might return true even if isNoWrapAddRec returns false (for example in the case of unit strided pointers), and we try to only add predicates when needed.

If we ever end up calling isNoWrapAddRec from somewhere else than isStridedPtr, it would be a good idea to allow coercing here as well.

Thanks, I intended to add the debug message here as well.

Added text with the SCEV expressions for %mul_ext before and after the predicates for all tests.
