[Bug]: `chpl_allStridesArePositive` hitting instatiation limits for Arkouda

[ShreyasKhandekar]

Summary of Problem

When compiling arkouda to support 1-3D arrays by modifying registration config, we run into an error with exceeding Chapel's instantiation limit. This is an issue with chpl_allStridesArePositive

These are notes from @e-kayrakli about how chpl_allStridesArePositive can be restructures to avoid this.

• chpl_allStridesArePositive takes 4 generic arguments
• called from distribution types — when it comes to Arkouda, the only one that matters is BlockDist
• it is called with array and domain values
• we should avoid calling this with array values as there are many many array types instantiated in Arkouda. In one instance, it is called with 2 array arguments. So, if there are N array types instantiated in Arkouda, we instantiate N**2 versions of this function. Whereas all it does is to do some checking on the array’s domain’s ranges, which just have int(64) indices.

Is this issue currently blocking your progress?
No

I added Performance as I would bin this under compilation performance. I also added Libraries/Modules because I think this is about reengineering some module code.
