Well the basic part is simple enough; some extra is needed to compensate
for the name munging used in TestInterpreterPlugin and its subclasses.
See attached.

Extremely quick hack to add the name of a primitive called by a method to the list used by implementors and senders.

It doesn't attempt to deal with FFI calls, nor does it work well with primitives defined in subclasses of TestInterpreterPlugin  - their names are munged in such a way as to confuse things. I expect somebody can work out a way around this. Still, it does work for 'ordinary' prims, which is a start"!
