FP: NP_METHOD_PARAMETER_TIGHTENS_ANNOTATION on constructors

[shevek]

class Base {
Base(@CheckForNull Object x) {}
}

class Derived extends Base {
Derived(@Nonnull Object x) { super(x); }
}

This should NOT generate a NP_METHOD_PARAMETER_TIGHTENS_ANNOTATION because there's no way to access the constructor of Derived as a virtual method on Base. That warning is only valid for instance methods.
