Reduce unnecessary guards whenever len() is called and used in arithmetic operations.

Windows JIT builds might've been broken by #132852. That PR did not trigger JIT CI.

I don't know if it's needed in this case, but for other tests there's normally a 'control' variable that checks that the result is still correct even with the optimization. Something like this:

Suggested change
a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
for _ in range(n):
_ = len(a) - 1
_, ex = self._run_with_optimizer(testfunc, TIER2_THRESHOLD)
x = 0
a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
for _ in range(n):
_ = len(a) - 1
if _ == 3:
x += 1
_, ex = self._run_with_optimizer(testfunc, TIER2_THRESHOLD)
self.assertEqual(res, TIER2_THRESHOLD)

Good point, I'll do it.

OK the problem is if I add this, _GUARD_TOS_INT and _GUARD_NOS_INT are appearing in the uops list.

Yeah we can't do it. x is from outside the loop (trace), so the first x += 1 has to have a guard somewhere.
