…tensor-stack#2871) This commit addresses GitHub issue xtensor-stack#2871 where using 'auto' with xtensor reducer functions (like amax, sum with keep_dims) in functions causes crashes or incorrect results in optimized builds. The issue is that lazy expressions hold references to local variables. When intermediate results are stored with 'auto', these references become dangling when the function returns, leading to undefined behavior. Fixes xtensor-stack#2871

This PR addresses GitHub issue #2871 where using auto with xtensor reducer functions (like amax, sum with keep_dims) causes crashes or incorrect results in optimized builds, particularly on Android ARM64.
Root Cause: Lazy expressions hold references to local variables. When intermediate results are stored with auto, these references become dangling when the function returns, leading to undefined behavior.
