Yes, that's what I mean. If you want to analyze code prior to weaving,
this analysis should probably not even go into the RewavingAnalysis.
You should rather add a compiler pass to your ExtensionInfo, right
after the pass JIMPLIFY_DONE and execute the analysis/preprocessing
from there. At this point in time, you have Jimple for all advice
bodies but nothing has been woven yet.
