Unfortunately, that doesn't work because `setSyntheticFieldCallback()` needs to 
be called by the `DataflowAnalysis`, and the `DataflowAnalysis` doesn't create 
the `DataflowAnalysisContext` (i.e. it can't pass anything to its constructor).

I think we could consider changing this though: I don't think there's anything 
that would prevent the `DataflowAnalysis` itself from creating the 
`DataflowAnalysisContext`, and then the synthetic field callback could simply 
be a constructor parameter. This would require changing existing analyses, 
however, so I don't think this is something to tackle as part of this patch.
