PR Review: Fix cycle detection

Summary

This PR fixes a bug in the ES minifier's cycle detection logic for class inheritance. The issue was that super class references were incorrectly being tracked as dependencies within the AST path context, leading to false cycles in the dependency graph.

Code Quality ✅

Positive aspects:

• Clear, surgical fix: The change is minimal and precisely targets the root cause
• Proper visitor pattern: Correctly separates super class visitation from the with_ast_path context
• Consistent with existing patterns: The explicit visitation of specific class parts (ident, decorators, body) follows established patterns elsewhere in the codebase

Analysis of the fix:

// BEFORE: Super class visited inside AST path context
fn visit_class_decl(&mut self, n: &ClassDecl) {
    self.with_ast_path(vec![n.ident.to_id()], |v| {
        n.visit_children_with(v); // Includes super_class
    })
}

// AFTER: Super class visited outside AST path context  
fn visit_class_decl(&mut self, n: &ClassDecl) {
    if let Some(super_class) = &n.class.super_class {
        super_class.visit_with(self); // Outside AST path
    }
    self.with_ast_path(vec![n.ident.to_id()], |v| {
        // Visit specific parts, excluding super_class
        n.ident.visit_with(v);
        n.class.decorators.visit_with(v);
        n.class.body.visit_with(v);
    })
}

The fix ensures that dependencies on super classes are not incorrectly attributed to the class being defined, preventing false cycles.

Test Coverage ✅

Excellent test coverage:

• Two test scenarios: cycle-1 and cycle-2 cover different cyclic inheritance patterns
• Regression tests: Tests are designed to ensure the minifier doesn't crash or get stuck in infinite loops
• Dead code elimination validation: Tests expect empty output (complete code elimination), which is correct for unused cyclic dependencies
• Real-world patterns: Test cases represent realistic scenarios with inheritance and side effects

The test structure follows SWC conventions correctly (input.js only, expecting empty output).

Performance Considerations ✅

Performance impact analysis:

• Minimal overhead: The change adds one conditional check per class declaration
• Potentially better performance: By fixing false cycles, the minifier can now properly eliminate more dead code
• Same algorithmic complexity: No change to the overall cycle detection algorithm complexity

The fix should improve rather than degrade performance by enabling more accurate dead code elimination.

Security Concerns ✅

No security issues identified:

• Pure optimization logic: Changes only affect code elimination, not code generation
• No external input handling: Changes are limited to AST traversal logic
• Maintains semantic correctness: Fix ensures minified code behavior matches original

Potential Issues ❓

Minor considerations:

1. Edge case coverage: While the test cases are good, consider adding tests with:

   • Deeper inheritance chains (A extends B extends C extends A)
   • Mixed inheritance and composition cycles
   • Static vs instance method cycles

2. Changeset missing: The changeset-bot noted no changeset was added. Consider if this fix warrants a patch version bump.

Overall Assessment ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Excellent PR - This is a high-quality bug fix that:

• ✅ Addresses a real issue with precise, minimal changes
• ✅ Includes comprehensive test coverage
• ✅ Follows established code patterns and conventions
• ✅ Has no negative performance or security implications
• ✅ Should improve minifier effectiveness for cyclic class hierarchies

Recommendation: Approve and merge after considering the changeset requirement.
