`loopUnrollByFactor` used `getConstantIntValue()` to read loop bounds,
which sign-extends the constant to `int64_t`. For unsigned `scf.for`
loops with narrow integer types (e.g. i1, i2, i3), this produces wrong
results: a bound such as `1 : i1` has `getSExtValue() == -1` but should
be treated as `1` (unsigned).
Two bugs were introduced by this:
1. **Wrong epilogue detection**: the comparison `upperBoundUnrolledCst <
ubCst` used signed int64, so e.g. `0 < -1` (where ubCst is the
sign-extended i1 value 1) evaluated to false, suppressing the epilogue
that should execute the remaining iterations.
2. **Zero step after overflow**: when `tripCountEvenMultiple == 0` (all
iterations go to the epilogue), `stepUnrolledCst = stepCst *
unrollFactor` can overflow the bound type's bitwidth and wrap to 0. A
zero step causes `constantTripCount` to return `nullopt`, preventing the
zero-trip main loop from being elided.
Fix:
- Use zero-extension (`getZExtValue`) instead of sign-extension when
reading bounds for unsigned loops.
- When `tripCountEvenMultiple == 0`, keep the original step for the main
loop to avoid the zero-step issue (the step value is irrelevant for a
zero-trip loop anyway).
