[GROOVY-7276] static compiler fails to eliminate dynamic property lookup

Description

class Foo {
    private i = 1
    @groovy.transform.CompileStatic
    def m() { new String().with {i}}
}
assert new Foo().m() == 1
class Bar extends Foo {}
assert new Bar().m() == 1

For this code the static compiler is supposed to create a bridge method in Foo and provide access to the private field "i" through that, as well as calling the method directly from within the with-block. Instead the compiler works using dynamic property access, which will cause the property not being found in the second assert because of MOP limitations
