Research direction

Start by reading the two linked Robot Framework examples, especially newstyleclasses.py and the referenced new_style_classes.robot lines, to understand how multiple libraries are represented and used. Trace the inspector's Python parsing and library-discovery entry point, then verify that one file can expose multiple libraries without breaking existing inspection behavior.
