Scott Murphy Heiberg updated GROOVY-12491:
------------------------------------------
    Description: 
When a class implements a trait, {{TraitComposer.applyTrait}} adds 
{{Helper.$init$(this)}} to the class's object initializer without a method 
target (the {{$static$init$}} call beside it has one). Every constructor 
therefore dispatches the call through the meta class of the helper, even in 
{{@CompileStatic}} classes:

{code:groovy}
trait Greeting { String greeting = 'hello' }
@CompileStatic class StaticGreeter implements Greeting {}
class DynamicGreeter implements Greeting {}
{code}

* {{StaticGreeter.<init>}}: {{ldc Greeting$Trait$Helper; ldc "$init$"; ... 
invokestatic ScriptBytecodeAdapter.invokeMethodN}}
* {{DynamicGreeter.<init>}}: {{invokedynamic 
invoke:(Class,LDynamicGreeter;)Object}}
* the static initializer of both: {{invokestatic 
Greeting$Trait$Helper.$static$init$(Class)}}

This costs a dynamic dispatch on every instantiation. A GraalVM native image 
has to register every trait helper's {{$init$}} for reflection, or construction 
fails with "No signature of static method: $init$".

Proposed fix: give the {{$init$}} call its method target, the 
{{$init$(TraitType)}} method the helper declares, so constructors call it with 
{{invokestatic}} in dynamic, {{@TypeChecked}} and {{@CompileStatic}} classes. 
The initializers of final trait fields ({{$init$<field>}}, 
{{$static$init$<field>}}) get their method targets too, and a helper that does 
not declare {{$init$(TraitType)}} fails compilation with a {{GroovyBugError}}.

With this change a method added to the helper's meta class (for example with 
ExpandoMetaClass) no longer replaces {{$init$}} or a field initializer, as it 
already could not replace {{$static$init$}}. This includes the classes that 
{{withTraits}} and {{as Trait}} generate at run time, which are composed the 
same way.
