Allow merging supertype into pinned subtype

If developers wish to do reflection on the super class or interfaces of a given class, it is still possible to prevent the vertical class merging of these super types by pinning the super types themselves.

Note that Proguard eliminates the interface A in the following example although MainActivity is kept.

    public class MainActivity extends Activity implements A {
        @Override
        protected void onCreate(android.os.Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
            f();
        }

        @Override
        public void f() {}
    }

    public interface A {
        void f();
    }
