When we calculate a product of 2 AddRecs, we end up making quite massive
computations to deduce the operands of resulting AddRec. This process can
be optimized by computing all args of intermediate sum and then calling
`getAddExpr` once rather than calling `getAddExpr` with intermediate
result every time a new argument is computed.

SCEV's transform that turns `{A1,+,A2,+,...,+,An}<L> * {B1,+,B2,+,...,+,Bn}<L>` into
a single AddRec of size `2n+1` with complex combinatorial coefficients can easily
trigger exponential growth of the SCEV (in case if nothing gets folded and simplified).
We tried to restrain this transform using the option `scalar-evolution-max-add-rec-size`,
but its default value seems to be insufficiently small: the test attached to this patch
with default value of this option `16` has a SCEV of >3M symbols (when printed out).
This patch reduces the simplification limit. It is not a cure to combinatorial
explosions, but at least it reduces this corner case to something more or less
reasonable.
