"""APK Code Analysis Extractor.

Decompiles and disassembles APK DEX bytecode at the method level,
producing per-method content and reference records analogous to
the Binary Ninja code_binja_* tables.

Uses androguard + JADX + apktool to replicate Binary Ninja analysis
depth for Android applications.
