Impact: verification stops with an internal error. It blocks 1 of the 48 real-code examples we built (bugs mined from open-source Java).

Description

Yielding a constructor call whose constructor has a refinement crashes (CtFieldReference.getDeclaringType() is null). Assigning it to a local first and yielding the local verifies.

Minimal reproducer

import liquidjava.specification.Refinement;

class Conn {
    public Conn(@Refinement("_ > 0") int port) {}
}

public class Repro {
    static Conn open(String scheme) {
        return switch (scheme) {
            case "tcp" -> {
                yield new Conn(80);
            }
            default -> new Conn(1);
        };
    }
}

Expected

Correct! Passed Verification. (80 satisfies the constructor's refinement.)

Actual

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: 
Error while checking CtMethodImpl
  on open(String scheme) { 
  with 
Error while checking CtBlockImpl
  on { 
  with 
Error while checking CtReturnImpl
  on return switch (scheme) { 
  with 
Error while checking CtSwitchExpressionImpl
  on switch (scheme) { 
  with 
Error while checking CtCaseImpl

Reproduced on main at 0472025 (liquidjava-verifier 0.0.35); also on fbfb4e2 and 0.0.33 in the original form.

Context

Found while turning bugs mined from real open-source Java (fixed upstream or still present) into study examples for the error-message study.
