Description

Currently the output type of the Add function is identical with the argument types which makes it unsafe to add numeric limit values, so instead of using (int8, int8) -> int8 signature we should use ((int8, int8) -> int16.

The current kernels do wrap around for performance reasons, so implement different kernels with overflow checking and add arithmetics options to let the caller choose which variant to run
