This is in preparation for adding a new deob module which invokes the
bytecode deobfuscator, decompiler and AST deobfuscator in turn.

This already caught some cases of public members that should have been
private and one case where the inferred type was too specific.

The new transformer uses a different approach to the old one. It starts
exploring the call graph from the entry points, recursively analysing
method calls. Methods are only re-analysed if their possible argument
values change, with the Unknown value being used if we can't identify a
single integer constant at a call site. This prevents us from recursing
infinitely if the client code does.
While this first pass does simplify branches in order to ignore dummy
method calls that are never evaluated at runtime, it operates on a copy
of the method (as we initially ignore more calls while the argument
value sets are smaller, ignoring fewer calls as they build up).
A separate second pass simplifies branches on the original method and
inlines singleton constants, paving the way for the UnusedArgTransformer
to actually remove the newly unused arguments.
This new approach has several benefits:
- It is much faster than the old approach, as we only re-analyse methods
as required by argument value changes, rather than re-analysing every
method during every pass.
- It doesn't require special cases for dealing with mutually recursive
dummy calls. The old approach hard-coded special cases for mutually
recursive calls involving groups of 1 and 2 methods. The code for this
wasn't clean. Furthermore, while it was just about good enough for the
HD client, the SD client contains a mutually recursive group of 3
methods. The new approach is capable of dealing with mutually
recursive groups of any size.
Finally, the new transformer has a much cleaner implementation.
