[Refactor] Simplify index sign state handling in LegalizeNegativeIndex (#1354)

This commit refines the logic for determining the sign state of indices in the LegalizeNegativeIndex transformation. It prioritizes vector patterns, specifically Ramp and Broadcast nodes, to avoid compile-time lane queries. The handling of scalar indices is also streamlined, ensuring clearer diagnostics when non-negativity cannot be proven. These changes enhance the robustness and clarity of index handling in the transformation pass.
