`SparseVectorization` assumes direct loop accesses (`a[lo:hi]`) are contiguous and vectorizes them with `vector.maskedload/maskedstore`. This is false for `sparse_tensor.coordinates` of a level inside a trailing AoS COO region, whose buffer is interleaved with other levels: a silent miscompile.
The true stride is already known from the tensor's encoding, even though the memref type is still dynamic at this point. Use it to fall back to a scalar loop when the stride is provably non-unit.
