Type/member usage missing from analysis

[carlreinke]

Steps to reproduce

1. Decompile Microsoft.AspNetCore.Routing.RouteEndpointDataSource.AddRequestDelegate(...) in "Microsoft.AspNetCore.Routing, Version=8.0.0.0".
2. In the code pane, right-click RouteEntry; click "Analyze".
3. In the "Analyze" pane, expand "Instantiated By". The list is missing the method we just decompiled.
4. In the code pane, right-click the property HttpMethods in the RouteEntry initializer; click "Analyze".
5. In the "Analyze" pane, expand "set" and then "Used By". The list is missing the method we just decompiled.

Thanks for your report!

Regarding RouteEntry: The cause for this is that it is a struct and the "Instantiated By" analyzer only scans for newobj instructions, but not initobj. Not sure, if treating initobj the same would be an appropriate fix. Regarding HttpsMethods: Yes, that should actually work. Will provide a fix.

Ideally, I'd want "Instantiated By" to include any place the decompiler would output new X. But I guess initobj represents default(X) as well as new X() for value types? I think there's an argument to be made that default for value types does represent an instantiation.
