Summary:
A current blind spot is when object construction stores specific executors / runnables to object fields, which are then never mutated and accessed from normal methods. IOW the attributes established in the constructor are necessary to report properly inside a normal method (assuming these attributes are not invalidated by method code).
To achieve this, first we retain a subset of the final state attributes in the summary (only those that affect instance variables, in constructor methods). Then, when we analyse a non-constructor method:
- we analyse all constructors
- remove all attributes from the attribute map whose key is not an expression of the form `this.x. ...`
- re-localise all remaining keys so that they appear as rooted in the `this` local variable of the current procedure
- join (intersect) all such attribute maps
- use the result in place of initial state as far as the attribute map is concerned for the analysis of the current procedure, which can now start.
This means we can catch idioms that use side-effectful initialisation for configuring certain object fields like executors or runnables.

Summary:
Instead of trying to figure out what runnable is directly passed to an executor,
use attributes to track the flow of a runnable. This has several advantages:
- Can track runnables across function return values.
- Can somewhat overcome the information loss under dynamic dispatch.
- Unifies handling with other attributes.

Summary:
- Unify treatment of modelled and annotated executors by making things go through attributes.
- Add a return attribute to summaries, so that we can track flows of thread guards/executors/future stuff through returned values.
- Dispatch modeled functions to model summaries.
This will help in following diffs where runnables will also go through attributes.
