… member initialization. Note that a class can only have ONE static constructor (so it will be unique).

It appears that the
cs/useless-assignment-to-localproduces some false positives for static members.That is, the query incorrectly reports
xas being a useless assignment inThe root cause of the problem is that the static member initializers don't have an enclosing callable (which affects the SSA logic and this bubbles up into the results of
cs/useless-assignment-to-localquery). In this PR we fix the problem by using the static constructor as the enclosing callable for the control flow elements/expressions of static member inititializers. For instance fields, there is a dedicated synthetic "object initializer" method (as there can exist multiple instance constructors). However, there is exactly one static constructor, so we can use that as the enclosing callable.
