Description
### Describe the bug
Does Spoon support to do static program slicing for inter-procedural program analysis.
I see there are many many tools out there. But none of them support (or work actually) to do basic program analysis for example, data-flow analysis, control-flow analysis.
I am curious to know whether Spoon would fill this gap!

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing Spoon's existing Java AST analysis and transformation APIs to determine whether inter-procedural data-flow or control-flow analysis is already supported. The issue provides no source files or tests; the work would need a defined static-slicing scope and validation criteria before implementation can begin.
