[Soot-list] Access android classes that are not in the stub

[Sam Blackshear]

JPhantom <https://github.com/gbalats/jphantom> is a very good
<http://cgi.di.uoa.gr/~smaragd/jphantom-oopsla13.pdf> tool for
automatically filling holes in the class hierarchy. You'll miss any
behaviors of the real-world TextView and Toast classes by having JPhantom
fill them in with empty stubs, but at least JPhantom will prevent the class
hierarchy analysis from throwing away all subclasses of TextView and Toast.
