But that is incorrect, partial vectorization can lead to a reduction node chain where we have vector reductions and scalar reductions at the same time. In those cases, we cannot move the UnorderedReductions out of the loop, so a optimization bailout is appropriate.

However, one assert would have lead to a `continue` in production, which would not break out of the nested loop correctly. I changed it to a `return`, so that would be a bailout from the optimization. This assert should not be triggered because in `SuperWord::mark_reductions` we forbid that a reduction node has any uses inside the loop except for the successor node in the reduction chain.
