Re: [squeak-smalltalk/squeak-object-memory] Senders of `textDomain` finds all methods that send `translated` (Issue #156)

marceltaeumel left a comment (squeak-smalltalk/squeak-object-memory#156)

This is probably a feature and not a bug? See `AdditionalMethodState >> #analogousCodeTo:`. Hmm... a similiar example is `onceCache`.

There can be various symbols added to compiled methods, which is the database that the Senders tools operates on.

**We could ignore AdditionalMethodState** ... but then we would also ignore a method's selector?

```Smalltalk
allLiteralsDo: aBlock scanForSpecial: aBoolean
	"Overwritten to skip certain (raw) literals."
		
	"Exclude method selector (or properties) and the method's class. Include code literals."
	1 to: self numLiterals - 2 do: [:index |
		(self literalAt: index) allLiteralsDo: aBlock scanForSpecial: aBoolean].

	"Enumerate the implicit literals in bytecodes of the receiver."
	aBoolean ifTrue: [self implicitLiteralsDo: aBlock].

	"Enumerate method selector only through additional method state."
	self penultimateLiteral isMethodProperties
		ifTrue: [self penultimateLiteral allLiteralsDo: aBlock scanForSpecial: aBoolean]
```
