In this specific case it is a user variable.  However, we should
probably clarify the compiler-temporary case as well as VRP really
does not and should not care if an object is a user variable or
a compiler generated temporary.

So, if we have an object with the range based on its type of
[0, 0x7fffffff] and we add 1 to that object, the resulting range
should be [1, 0x7fffffff].   ie, 0x80000000 is not a valid value
for the type.  Right?
