FALSE NEGATIVE: PULSE_RESOURCE_LEAK misses an unclosed RandomAccessFile #2104

Description

@chisa22

Hi, I found a false negative in Infer 1.3.0 when a RandomAccessFile is allocated and never closed or returned.

Affected checker

Infer PULSE_RESOURCE_LEAK

Minimal reproducer

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.RandomAccessFile;

class InferLeakRandomAccessFile {
  void test() throws IOException {
    new RandomAccessFile("file.txt", "r");
  }
}

Reproduction command

infer --version
infer run --pulse --enable-issue-type PULSE_RESOURCE_LEAK -- javac infer-resourceleak-fn-randomaccessfile-model.java

Current behavior

Infer completes successfully but produces no PULSE_RESOURCE_LEAK finding.

Expected behavior

Infer should report PULSE_RESOURCE_LEAK at line 6 because the allocated RandomAccessFile is never closed or returned.
