Introduce
AbstractImageHeapListas a super type forHostedImageHeapListandRuntimeImageHeapList. This allows declaring a more restricted type for fields initialized withImageHeapList#create(Class)to aid open-world analysis. When such a field is analysed in an open-world it gets injected all possible subtypes of its declared type. Declaring the type asAbstractImageHeapListallows us to only injectRuntimeImageHeapList.This enables a more precise analysis and avoids for example triggering false-positive violations of@RestrictHeapAccess: if the field was declared asListthen implementations ofListfor which simple access operations can allocate, such asArrayList#get(int), could become reachable from code annotated with@RestrictHeapAccess.
